15 Pictures That Perfectly Sum Up How Going Back To Work After Vacation Feels

Holiday breaks and vacations are essential to any employees well-being. Getting time off allows people to unwind and forget about all the troubles that work brings. Unfortunately, these breaks are short-lived and we end up having to get back to reality. These pictures accurately describe how everyone feels having to switch back in to work mode after their much enjoyed time off.

This Dunkin Donuts Mishap

The day started off with so much promise, but ultimately went completely south.

This Poor Soul Mopping In The Rain

Everyone feels like this man most days. No matter what you are doing, it never seems to get the job done.

This Pale Guy Who Sticks Out Like A Sore Thumb

One of these things is not like the other. Like when everyone but you seemed to have the best vacation ever while you were home sick.

This Door Handle Fiasco

Each day needs to have a reset button we can hit when things go wrong. This person would love to restart today, but they forgot the button inside.

This Contradicting Door

Businesses claim they want you to succeed, but just like this door — it's full of totally unexpected wtf moments.

This Statue Trying Its Best

Getting back to work after a long break is just like the statue. You want to lay your head down and cry, but give off somewhat of a positive message.

This Congratulatory Message To Everyone…Except Cody

We've all felt like Cody before. Everyone else is excelling, but you just can't seem to get things going.

This Honest Shirt

People who claim to be happy at work are lying. No one is ever truly happy to get up early and go to work.

This Message From Susan

Bosses can be real mean sometimes. Susan just died, and they are only giving her 12 days off? What kind of excuse is usable after the holidays? None, because that time is now past, apparently.

This Bottle Of Body Wash

As soon as you step foot in to work, you try and put on a good face for everyone to see. The only problem is that you are crying on the inside.

This Unfortunate Elevator

It's always awkward when you say the wrong thing, but nothing can compare to this elevator's mistake. Maybe they should rethink this kind of advertising.

This Detailed Emergency Plan

It's always good to have something in place in case of an emergency. Although, you feel exactly like this is the "emergency plan" when you are at the office.

This Stuffed Animal That Was So Close

This toy was so close to tasting the sweet air of freedom, but sometimes, life's "claw" can feel just out of reach.

This Broken Scale

When you were trying to make resolutions but they feel so out of reach.

This Cheesecake That Was Never Enjoyed

This cheesecake was so beautiful and was about to be enjoyed by everyone. That is, until reality hit the poor cake right in the face. We've all been this cake.
