Shit day at work

I need to vent. I'm having a drink (which I hardly ever do) and thinking fuck it let's book a holiday (which I cant really afford)

Had a shit day at work- was told I did something wrong which I have to cop to even though I dont agree. Can't argue it and just have to accept it - it wont effect my career but will be recorded. Annoyed as it's really the perception of it - I don't think I did anything wrong and neither does my client. I'd love to be more specific. Anyway what can I do to take my mind off it before I go in tomorrow and try and salvage my reputation?!

Why can’t you argue it if yourself and your client disagree with it?

Book the holiday!

Sorry to hear that, we all have days like this! Get browsing a cheap holiday or a cheap weekend away? Cheers xx

Yeah I think I need to. Basically the client agrees with my approach and so do I however it doesn't meet my employers policy completely. Apparently. I'm not sure about that either. I've had a talking to, they've spoken to the client who is happy but it still needs to be recorded in case it's a "pattern" 🙄

Thank you. Not sure where to go - usually I'm happy with UK holidays but feeling this massive urge now to just get away for a bit!!

Thank you! I still feel like shit. Husband has just come home and I've fully vented to him. We're going to look at holidays!

Me and DH managed to get really cheap flights to Málaga going out Sun 2 June. The weather there at this time of year is fab and there are lots of options away from the coast/beaches if sunbathing isn’t your thing.

Definitely worth a look. We end up always doing caravan holidays with our toddler but it just doesn't feel like a proper holiday right now! Off to Google.
