The one thing that stops 90% of the working population from packing it in and retreating under a bridge like a troll is that we can go on vacation. There's nothing like spending a couple of weeks somewhere where things like deadlines and bosses don't matter to trick you into thinking that it's worthwhile the other fifty weeks of the year.
