Will you be greeting your colleagues today with a smile or a grimace?
Jan. 2 is always tricky. It seems, no matter how strong one’s workplace culture, we’re all psychologically hardwired to resent this day, just a little bit. It’s the day the platter of your life’s obligations is returned to you, the day on which you’re reawakened to the fact that you’re not completely in charge of every aspect of your life. You’re accountable to others: bosses, equals, juniors. But don’t worry. That gloom quickly passes.
