A Vacation From...?

 

When I took a break from work recently, it was a vacation from spreadsheets for me.

That's because in my job as a Commissions Analyst Consultant, I work with a lot of spreadsheets...

Spreadsheets with HR information.

Spreadsheets with sales targets and commission rates.

Spreadsheets with order data.

Spreadsheets with commission calculations.

Spreadsheets with exchange rates.

Spreadsheets with zip codes.

What do you do for a living?

And when you take a break, what is your leisure time a vacation from?

We automatically associate the word "vacation"with not doing the work we normally do.

But a vacation could also mean a vacation from having to put up with stuff from the people in our life.

This message is for those who dish out that stuff.

Dishers, I want you to consider giving the people in your life a vacation from the following:

A Vacation From Complaining

A Vacation From Temper Tantrums

A Vacation From Having To Deal With Chaos

A Vacation From Being Criticized

A Vacation From Being Judged

A Vacation From Being Dealt With In A False and Inauthentic Way

A Vacation From Being Taken Advantage of or Being Manipulated

A Vacation From Being Attacked and Made The Bad Person

A Vacation From Having To Be The One That Gives In

A Vacation From Opinions

Give the gift of a real vacation to those you cherish and who deserve better...

A vacation from your stuff!
