Does anyone else do this?

Checking Out is what someone does right before a holiday or vacation (or when they get a different job), where the amount of care and fucks given about work items dwindles to nearly nothing - and all concern and thought is put toward the upcoming event.



I have checked out this morning.

my status since receiving another job offer:



i almost feel bad, but then I think about the fact that they know I'm leaving so they're not giving me any work anyway. so duck it

It's been a pain in the ass this week to get anything done. All my customers have pretty much checked out and won't return emails/calls for me to help resolve some issues. And co-workers have checked out. Finally yesterday around 1:30 I was like, fuck it. I'm out. And I took today off. See you bitches January 2nd!

^haah, I like your style.


everyone in my office does the 'conceal that window' click when anyone else walkes in their office. especially with one guy who slowly blinks and clicks at the same time.

I would have checked out all week if I wasn't forced to meet with clients about year end tax planning things. When I get in my office by myself, then yes, I am checked out.

I checked out yesterday and got hammered last night. Gotta "check back in" right after Christmas. The first couple weeks after New Years is going to be BRUTAL.

I'm currently interviewing for a new job, but do not have any offers yet. Still, I've been fighting against checking out something fierce for the last couple weeks.

I'm done for the year as of yesterday and hopefully done for good shortly.

Checked out end of last week. We had a couple of Christmas parties this week, but that was the most I got done. Boss took most of the office to a long lunch today. Now just waiting on his boss to let us go early.

I don't want to be a check out, because I've gotten on my team in the past for checking out; but, I'll admit that I'm starting to check out and the checking out will only get worse over the next 2 weeks

If you drive around Topsail, you'll see this all the time with bicyclists and pedestrians.
