I took this past week off to get my house renovated and get prepared for a move. Even with that kind of "vacation" I am not eager for tomorrow to come.
Vacation just reminds you what life could feel like
If you won the lottery or worked ten times harder. Scratch that. Even working ten times harder still won't give you that life. And you would blow the lottery winnings ~1 year.
Maybe that's the real trap.
You get a glimpse of a life that most people will never reach. Then you go back to pretending the system is fine.
I visited a country with functioning infrastructure and beautiful scenery for a week and returned to a new assignment at work which was absolutely dreadful and this hits home.
You guys get vacations?
Had two weeks off not long ago and was ready to burn the place down the Monday I had to go back.
This also happens to me with my home country when I return from traveling to other countries as I live in the US.
