1. Your body, trying to remember how to wake up early:

How did I do this before the holiday?

2. The traffic returning from its own holiday like:

You can’t even wait small?

3. You, throughout your first day back at the office:

I’m not ready for this.

4. When your co-worker asks you about your holiday.

Don’t remind me of the freedom I’ve lost, abeg.

5. When a co-worker comments on your holiday weight gain.

Better face your work.

6. You, pretending to actually get work done:

That salary must still enter.

7. You, immediately searching for the next public holiday:

I’m already tired.

8. When you hear someone say they “missed work”.

Is it crack?

9. Your broke ass, counting down the days until January salary enters:

Hay God! Why did I do Detty December?

10. How time moves on the first day back:

What kind of slow ass day is this?

11. You, finally leaving the office:

I MADE IT.
