In these times of weak global economy, many companies are faced with a slowdown. Many employees are experiencing a low period and some firms have adopted a shorter work period for their staff, in the form of lesser or no overtime work, as well as no pay leave and/or voluntary leave.
Many of those who are used to working long hard hours, find themselves all of a sudden left stranded high and dry. Yet those who view it positively will find that this is a golden opportunity to catch up on other aspects of life. Some have taken the chance to further their education by taking up courses, etc. Some have decided to spend more time with their loved ones. It is indeed a good break to have. Haven't you forgotten the times when you were so busy that you were begging for a break? Now that it is here, shouldn't you cherish it?
As with any job, there will be busy times and times when work is more comfortably manageable. It is a good time to catch your breath and relax. Even I had decided to clear my leave to lay back and listen to some bossa nova music:
Bebel Gilberto ~ So Nice
Someone to hold me tight
That would be very nice
Someone to love me right
That would be very nice
Someone to understand
Each little dream in me
Someone to take my hand
And be a team with me
So nice, life would be so nice
If one day I'd find
Someone who would take my hand
And samba through life with me
Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me
Oh yeah, that would be so nice
I could see you and me, that would be nice
