Vacation is a good thing — whatever it looks like for you. Some people like to take a vacation and stay at home. Others like to travel across the globe to experience a new culture. Some just want to find a beach and sit there with a stack of good books and a cool drink.

What’s not amazing is leaving work and coming back to your desk to find an overflowing email box and cranky co-workers who are expecting you to get caught up in no time. It can be enough to kill any post-vacation happiness you have.
