HAVE you ever returned from annual leave feeling…thoroughly un-refreshed?
New research from Carnival Cruise Line has found Australians are stuck in a ‘time off trap’, which sees them wasting up to a third of their leave allowance on life admin tasks at the expense of fun.
More than half (54%) of Australians have fallen into this trap the last two years, rising to 63% for millennials and 61% for parents.
Time to play and switch off is instead being swallowed by housework and chores (50%), running errands (42%), e-mails and bills (40%), and attending appointments (37%).
“Cruising is a great way to escape the ‘time off trap, to really switch off from those day-to-day responsibilities and just have fun,” assistant vice president sales & marketing Anton Loeb said.
