Taking an extra day off of work is not a “hack.” It’s just taking another day off.
Was referring to creative VP! Didn’t think your comment was rude. :)
The George Costanza method. Walk around stressed all the time and people will assume you’re too busy for extra assignments. It’s worked beautifully for me for the last 4 years.
I do this frequently, especially if taking a late flight home so I can maximize my time on my trip. Definitely would not consider this a "hack."
Oooh I like this one
Cannot recommend this one enough.

I completely agree and have been doing the same for many years. It gives you pause to reset before diving in to work, especially if you're returning from another time zone. It's also saved me on a couple occasions when my return flight was delayed.
Exactly this! Early in my career I never thought to do this. It was so hard logging in early if the previous days travel ended late at night.

Just did this after taking the kid to Disney. A rest and recovery day was mandatory.
Always mandatory!
