God, abeg
But how do you work when every cell in your body either wants to rewind time so it鈥檚 December again, or fast-forward it to payday? Just use these tips.
Start counting the days
Anytime you get tired of work, remember you鈥檙e a few more hours closer to salary day.
Throw in pointless office lingo
Because what says performance-driven employee like throwing words like 鈥渂andwidth鈥, 鈥渃ircle back鈥 or 鈥渄rill down鈥? It doesn鈥檛 even need to relate to the subject matter. Just say it so it sounds like your mind is on your job.

Blame MTN and their cohorts
I鈥檓 not saying you should use bad internet as an excuse for not doing your work o. But it鈥檚 not within your control, abi?
Set up meetings
You don鈥檛 even need an agenda. Everyone knows most meetings are just a waste of time. You can even say the purpose is for everyone to share what they learnt during the holidays. That should knock at least two hours off the day.
Just look busy
If you need to @channel on Slack for no reason, or walk up and down your office to look busy, just do it. Others may call it eye service, but you鈥檙e just protecting your job.
Remember the state of your account balance
