Despair

The 9 stages of going back to work after Christmas

Work is hell.

STE3VE STE3VE

TODAY IS THE day when many people return to work, blinking and in shock, after the long holiday.

It’s a difficult process. Here’s how it goes:

1. Late-night terrors

2. Desperate bargaining

3. Bitter acceptance

4. Burning jealousy that some people are still ‘on Christmas’

5. Readjustment to the strange, alien workplace environment

6. Days-of-the-week confusion

7. Desperate fantasising

8. Disastrous mix-ups owing to your brain having turned to mush

9. And finally, despair.

Happy working!

And to those of you who worked over Christmas, you're a hero. Represent.
