It’s that time of the year again when I wish I could bring my cross stitching kit, books and probably a portable DVD player to watch and see movies I missed, my daughter and her coloring books and crayons…..at work.
Starting on May 1st to May 7th, Japan will go on holiday for the Golden Week. Actually, today is a national holiday there too and for people who work closely with the Japanese market, it’s a challenge to stay awake until the 6 pm bell rings.
Don’t tell me to sort out my internet bookmarks and organize my desktop icons coz that’s been done today already. On the other days that I’ll be vacant? I’ll probably write menu plans for the whole month!
My work is put to a halt when the office in Japan closes. Sure I have some reports to do here and there but 8.5 hours is more than enough to do that.

Boredom is such torture! I’m surprised your office just doesn’t give YOU holiday for that period of time as well, since you can’t very well communicate with Japan when they are not in the office. You are an organized and efficient worker and your bosses probably aren’t used to an employee who’s already caught up and doesn’t NEED the down week!

Grace! I wish I could take a rest during GW without feeling guilty! If only I could finish or at least write half of the article, then maybe.
