10 people who had a bad case of The Fear this morning

No more afternoon naps.

IT’S AFTER 1PM on the official Back-To-Work Day around Ireland.

So we can breathe a little now that we’re through the worst of it.

1. But this morning, the grim reality of No More Christmas set in

Whoops!

2. We knew where we stood in the grand scheme of Christmas

3. All was lost

I am not mentally, physically or emotionally prepared to give up afternoon naps 😫😭 #backtowork

4. Arriving into work was worse for some

Wished a colleague a "happy new year!" Their response? "We'll see." No, stop, I can't handle all the positivity . . . #backtowork

They needed a Back-To-Work Office Chat Bingo.

5. We could all dream of other careers

Today, so much teacher-envy 😩 #backtowork

6. It began last night

The Glenroe music is starting up in my head, the 'homework to be done' tightening of chest at full tilt. The fear is real #backtowork

7. We had a lot to consider

Whoops!

8. All laws can be suspended for the working day

I feel like on first day back at work you should be able to do things with no repercussions, like in The Purge. Punch people. Throw stuff.

Probably.

9. All those nice emails waiting for you

Whoops!

10. Things are looking up for 2017 though

My celebratory mood after finding a 2 euro coin under the bed speaks volumes about my financial outlook for January.
