Who here is being bold about taking some extra vacation days in December? I burned out by November, and this is just where it's at for me. it's either that or being checked out at the office. Not present either way.

You sound like you’re based in the US? UK culture sees business being super quiet as everyone takes time off and if they don’t they’re not expected to be busy unless you work in a call centre. Take the time off!!!

Definitely burned out as well. I got my vacation planned at the end of December. Not that far away now. You going anywhere on your time off?

I can totally relate. I feel so unmotivated when everybody is off and I'm at the office. I kind of like the peace and quiet though.

I have been thinking about that too. November is the most hectic month so far this year. I could really use an extension of the holidays.

They told me I couldn’t carry my time over, so I said I’ll see them after New Years.

Why are you letting yourself become burnt out? You should be taking regular vacation days and making sure you’re stepping away from work to recharge. If you feel this is because you have too much to do, then you need to be managing your workload better.

If you don’t know how to do the above, talk to your manager and HR about how to do a better job of owning your time. And if they can’t help you, find a job somewhere that can.
