There's no better feeling than turning on your out of office and taking some time to recharge - so what if you could turn your annual leave into 60 days off work?
Well there is a simple way to maximise your time off if you're savvy and lucky enough to not work bank holidays or weekends, reports the Mirror .
Many people in the UK are entitled to 28 days of annual leave and there are eight bank holidays.
These are the 2020 bank holiday dates:
The first date you need to look out for in the new year is Easter.
Taking eight days holiday in April will give you 16 consecutive days off, including weekends, leaving you with a smug out of office between April 4 and April 19.
All you need to do is book off the week leading up to Good Friday on April 10 and the week after Easter Monday on April 13.
The first of May's two bank holidays has been moved next year to celebrate VE Day and will fall on Friday, May 8.
Taking off four days from May 4 will see you off work for nine days between May 2 and 10.
The second bank holiday will be on May 25, so booking off between May 26 and 29 will get you another nine consecutive days away and by June your colleagues will start forgetting you work there at all.
Fancy another nine days? Here you go.
With the August bank holiday on Monday 31 you just need to book off between September 1 and 4 and you can lap up some late summer rays or, more likely, escape the rain.
Saving the best until last, seven holiday days over the festive period will give you 16 days straight of Christmas jumpers and pigs in blankets for breakfast.
We'll be off Christmas Day on Friday, December 25 and, with Boxing Day falling on a weekend, we'll get Monday, December 28 in lieu.
With New Year's Day on a Friday, booking off December 21 to 24 and 29 to 31 will see you away for the entirety of the most wonderful time of the year.
Follow the guide and you'll pretty much be working part-time next year.
