Can You Imagine Calling Your Boss And Saying,

'can I book in a hangover day next thursday?'



well that is exactly what you can do if you work for The Audit Lab, a digital marketing agency in the UK, where a specific hangover policy allows them to take time off to deal with the nausea, headache, and overall foul mood that hangovers come with. In a nutshell, this intriguing perk lets employees work from home if they are suffering from hangover, and as long as they don’t abuse the policy by taking time off to often, they can even schedule the days off in advance when they know they will end up wasted, above Lee and Ellie spent the day at MediaCityUK speaking to BBC BreakfastBBC Radio Manchester and BBC Radio 5 live talking all about our 'hangover days',  “We wanted to offer something to younger millennials who typically go out mid-week and do the pub quiz. My team book a hangover day in advance, if they know they are going out,” The Audit Lab co-founder, Claire Crompton, told the BBC, “They just work in their PJs, sat at home on the couch.” adding “It’s basically a work-from-home day, but we’ve sexed it up a bit to appeal to the younger generation, if people used it two or three times a week and missed important client meetings then we’d have to have a think. But everyone has been really respectful of it so far.” what a great idea, I wonder how many days a week off I would have to ask for!
