9 Reasons Why Vacations Suck
We all seem to love vacations, no matter where they're to. They always seem fun when you're experiencing it, until you look back and realize how much they suck.
-
1. Work
Take your computer to the beach, check your blackberry, there's no getting around work.
-
2. Other Tourists
We may be annoying, ourselves, but there is nothing worse than other tourists that are as stupid as we are.
-
3. Locals
Is it just me, or are the locals of the area always either really condescending, ignorant, rude, or overall ass-hole-ish?
-
4. Money
Why is everything on vacation so expensive?! Three dollars for a bottled water? I'd rather drink my own urine... maybe.
-
5. Packing
Never the right amount of clothing. Always forgetting the toothbrush. Too many pairs of pants, not enough underwear. It never fails.
-
6. Flying
TSA and inconsistent flights. I'd rather drive for five hours than be stranded at the airport for three.
-
7. Old Hotel Smell
The hotels that actually have reasonable prices always seem to be old ones that have the lingering smell of moth balls, sweat, and cigarettes from years past.
-
8. Getting Time Off
You: "I'm going to be needing three days so that I may go visit my in-laws in Kansas." Boss: "Not on my time." You: "But I have two weeks of off time saved up!" Boss: "So?"

9. Weather
So what if the weatherman said it'll be 85 degrees and sunny? I hope you brought a raincoat and winter jacket.
