"You gotta use what you got to get what you want."    This line isn’t just iconic—it’s a whole vibe for how we should approach our time off.   You’ve got PTO, weekends, and holidays like Thanksgiving coming up, so ask yourself: Are you really going to rest? Or are you just swapping one kind of busy for another? Time off is your chance to recharge, reset, and reconnect with what matters. Don’t waste it. Sit down. Unplug. Use this time to take care of you. Let’s make our time off work for us. #BurnoutRelief #HookyWellness #TakeBetterBreaks #LeadershipDevelopment

I just gave my entire team Christmas week off. Not an "official policy." Not in the employee handbook. Just an unwritten tradition I've kept for 5 years straight. Why? Because time with family is priceless. This extra week off comes on top of regular vacation time. No strings attached. Complete disconnection. Some business owners might think: "But what if clients need us?" "What about year-end deadlines?" "Won't this hurt the business?" Here's my response: When hell freezes over... or when it snows in Tampa, Florida. (Spoiler: I'm in Tampa. It's not going to snow.) Could something catastrophic happen that requires all hands on deck? Sure. But I've learned something in 5 years of doing this: The world keeps spinning. Clients understand. Work gets done. Most importantly? My team knows they're valued as humans first, employees second. That's worth more than any "official policy" could ever be. Happy Christmas everyone.

Not everyone can pull it off... To celebrate the start of vacation season, we've prepared some spicy 🌶️ out of office (OOO) messages so you don't have to. In our opinion, a good OOO message should: 1) inform about the time off 2) alert ⚠️ that no more emails should be sent to you 3) make the recipient smile* *optional, but encouraged Do you have your go-to OOO message? 😊 #outofoffice #vacationseason

Monday Meeting Recap: 👉Drivers' vacations 👉Notify receiver if the driver is late Let's start the week off on the right foot and set ourselves up for success! 🚀

‘Welcome back Anca! Hope you enjoyed your time off; what was the best thing you did for yourself on your vacation?’ The best thing? Hmm…good one…Turn off all notifications for Outlook, teams and other job-related tools (log off is also an option if you can remember your passwords … ha ha). A very good (an tough) lesson I learned (the hard way) is that we all need to relax, recharge and reset; we are not robots and as managers we need a clear mind and focus so we can help and support our teams and clients. So my advice to you is: relax, enjoy your time off and everything that’s important in life! A.

⚠️ SPOILER ALERT...⁣ ⁣ As a business owner you CAN take vacation! A full... unplugged... no work vacation!⁣ In May I took 2 full weeks off! ⁣ How?⁣ ⁣ Easy!

Client: "I have a wild idea for April Fool's Day. What if we tell all our employees they're getting a month-long vacation?" Recruiter: "Haha, that would definitely be a surprise! But let's stick to something more realistic. How about organizing a team-building activity instead?" Client: "True, we don't want to cause chaos! Let's go with the team-building, but we can still throw in some fun pranks along the way, right?" Recruiter: "Absolutely! A little laughter never hurts, as long as it's all in good fun." #AprilFoolsHumor
