I have decided to take an OFF from work today.

It's been a while since I have not taken a leave from work. I have decided that will take an off today. I have been tired of working last whole week, even I had to go to work on Sunday. I want to take a rest and devote some time to my family. I wish I could spend my day without seeing the face of my "shouting boss" How is your day? Do you have any special plans for today?

It is Sunday night here. Monday is a national holiday, so most people wouldn't be at work tomorrow. Pretty and I have a few errands to do (I need to drop a letter at the Post Office, drop a deposit at the bank and take our rent payment to the office.) and she wants to pick up some groceries while we're out. That is our whole day.

@DaddyEvil hope so. I don't watch YouTube at all. Just watch songs that's it.

Why is your boss shouting at the employees? Can you not file a petition?

No, I can't do that. Top management also believes shouting is good to get work from the people.

I have read before somewhere where there are focused groups to just scream and shout to vent anger and get things out of their system. Weird but true.

@sica98 it's good to devote time to your friends. Yes during covid people were cut off from society and could not see each other. How is the covid situation at your place these days?

Good to take a break once in a while. However, I think you should try for another job or request a transfer to another department.

In every department it's similar. I tried for another job few months but did not get.

True. Now, you are still "at work" or "on call" even if you're actually on sick leave or vacation leave, unlike before where once you're out of the office, sick or on vacation, you cannot be reached.
