Pretty much the norm for office work if we're being honest...

People who have never worked a job where the tasks are the same every day probably don't understand how nice time off can be because you can just disconnect completely. Reverse is true as well, people who have never had a job with ongoing projects can't understand how stressful it can be to go on vacation...

I used to have a job like my first example (repetitive tasks, no long term projects) and being able to leave for a whole month without caring about what happens at work... Damn it felt great.
