      Take leave every Wednesday then you'll always have 4-day work week. DH doing that now to clear his leave.

      I would love to but unfortunately, I don't have so much leave.

      In the past, I looked for jobs that are 5 day work week.

      Now, I am looking for jobs that are 3 or 4 day work week.

      😉

            Only at year end. During 1st 9 months, annual leave very precious in case of family emergencies. So now got dating time in the middle of the week.

              I agree. First 9 mths of the year, must not anyhow apply leave as you never know when you need to take leave in one stretch.

              Only at year end, with a lot of leave to clear, then slowly enjoy.

              Reminds me of the saying - work hard now n enjoy later!!!!

              😂

                first half of the year, there are several public holidays…so there is really no need to take leave. preferable to keep annual leave till year end because there is SA2. Christmas week is a compulsory shut down week till 2 jan.

                  Actually if working full time, just a few public holidays isn’t enough.

                      Wait! You're leaving soon right? Itinerary not up? Or hotels all booked but details not worked out? DH also asking for itinerary. I used to write it out macham tour brochure. He adds pics.
