office worker wait until next year

It’s a time we never thought would come. If we were looking ahead, it would be just a mere speck on the horizon.

However, The Advocate can exclusively reveal that today the nation’s workplaces have collectively agreed that no more important work is to be done in 2025, unless it is a life surgery.

In fact, not only are we in the “it can wait til next year” phase, but any clients or managers that assign work from now on will be considered treasonous and risk being reported to ASIO for committing an act of terror.

Upon hearing the news, workers across the city are rejoicing with many revealing that they thought they’d never get here.

“It was a long year, man. I wasn’t sure it would end. Like, I genuinely wondered if time had stopped.” said one finance minion with a thousand yard stare.

“Finally! If anyone tries to give me work I’m going to tell them to shove it! Well, more likely it’ll be a very politely worded apology with some excuse about timelines and Christmas congestion.” said a producer at a big advertising agency.

Of course there are a number of caveats and this phase is only applicable to certain industries, however for the large number of Australians this does apply to: take a load off, friend, you’ve earned it.

More to come.
