Returning To Work After A Break Gifts

"The gap in my resume is when I took time to smell the roses!"

'William, I've decided to go back to work so I can get a little rest during the day.'

"Oh, Mrs. Horris, he just said his first words..!"

"I'm learning to live with existence."

'She's determined to combine a family and a career!'

"How do we break it to them that work-from-home ends next week?"

Hand sanitizer

'How soon can I return to work? About fifteen minutes ago.'

"First day back at work. Don't forget to get some office stationery."

"I'm so happy to be back in the workforce I'll never complain out loud again about Mondays."

"I take it this is your first interview since the start of lockdown?"

'Going back to work now that the kids are grown is one thing, Martha. Mounting a hostile takeover bid of my company is another!'

"Now, Mrs. Stevens, go to work, relax, and leave the social engineering to us."

"I'm back. My family didn't want to spend more time with me."

"If someone hugs me my first day back, I'm going to just break into pieces."

"You're on 'Ask Sadie.' What's your problem?!" "I want to go back to work." "But my son is still so young. I'd have to send him to preschool or day care. And then most of my salary would go to pay for that. So what should I do?" "You should do what we did in my day: Have six more kids and then let them all fend for themselves!" "If your eldest isn't a strong leader, it may get a little 'Lord of the Flies'-ish, but that builds character!" "...in the survivors."

'Still having problems finding day care?'

'Mat leave's almost up...time for you to hunt.'

"We're not doing virtual meetings anymore, Stu."

'It's OK to take your work home with you. It's not OK to bring your home to work with you.'

Working mother

"What do you think you're doing? You play with me every day for 15 months, and out of the blue, you're going to work?!"

"Good morning, Mother! We made you a desk salad."

"But first let's all congratulate Ted on his return to work."

'You weren't here to say no.'

Coronavirus – Keep Calm and Carry on

"Holidays with the family... Boss, I'm so happy to be back again! May I do some unpaid extra hours please?"

'The good news is, we were able to save your leg'.

"Haaaaah. . . . Back to the office. Better put on my happy face. . ."

Did You Miss Me?

"The first week back is always the hardest"

"Tim hasn't felt comfortable coming back into the office but he has sent some of his thoughts."

"Julian is still adjusting to in-person so he'll call in to this meeting from the back of the room."

'Still on a holiday high, Miss Frimley?'
