Ravinged 5th Gear June 13, 2018 Share June 13, 2018 Have you guys reach a point where sometimes u feel taking leave is wasting your life away? More for people who has family (kids) where your life evolves around them. When you take leave and your wife did not take and you have to clear leave. Your good friends all have their own families and work so it's really yourself on your leave days. Pretty depressing... Rotting away at home and not travelling. In the past, unless I have local matters to do, I make sure I travel when I am on leave. That way, nobody can ask me to cancel my leave and return to work over every little minor thing. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotting away at home and not travelling. are you able to travel? meaning, do u have other commitments/dependents that require your presence? if not, consider taking the opportunity to travel alone and learn more about (1) yourself and (2) the world. Or, if you have kids of suitable age, bring them along. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFpPghvB_Fk 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buadongdong Twincharged June 14, 2018 Share June 14, 2018 Hehehe Where got where got I self massage until fell asleep Wah.. You last so long until fall asleep ah?? Guru level liao.. How will your company react if you tell them that you will just forfeit the leave and continue working? With married couples, I find that the point about you clearing yet your wife not taking leave means that the couple really needs to communicate more effectively. Double income family, the husband and wife should have planned their leave and holidays 1 year ahead so that leave dates can coincide. You know how much leave you are entitled and carried over, why not plan earlier? Why wait till it is going to be forfeited then you are forced to clear the leave? Food for thought. Maybe ts wanna save his leave in case kids fall sick suddenly or cannot go sch. I'm doing the same as well by saving leave. Cos my kiddos kenna hfmd and cannot go sch for a week.. All last minute and cannot plan for in advance.. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people are not trained to counsel the depressed and they just warm bodies picking up a ringing phone. Good luck.
