A vacation away from the usual distractions – laptop, cellphone, tv, Techmeme, Google News, Twitter, Facebook etc is great.
But settling back into work after a long vacation has become dreadful for some, nightmarish for several others.
Other than the long list of unread messages in your inboxes, you have the hajjar unread items in Google Reader, the several hundreds of Twits (depending on how many folks you follow) and countless other to-do things.
There’s no better way to recover than hitting the ‘mark all as read’ button – if you know a better alternative, do let me know.
I call it the post vacation decluttering stress disorder !!
Ah, the times we live in !!
vacationcount = vactioncount -1;
while(vacationgoingon)
{
if ( currentday < lastdayofvacation)
{
enjoy……..
}
else
{
read emails, twits, news, reply emails, restart daily chores, get back to
normal boring and routine life
}
}
lead a normal routine life and spawn a wait thread for next vacation….
Hope that helps
