The last days of work or school before a fun trip are always a drag. Time seems to crawl, you don’t really want to be there, and your mind wanders, thinking of the cool experiences you’re about to have. Let’s face it, you just want the bell to ring so you can leave the building and get ready for a fun adventure.
Still, you’ve got to get your work done before you go. And if you do a sloppy job, it can still come back to bite you down the line. Whether that’s your GPA taking a hit, your boss chewing you out, or in the Seattle Sounders’ case, failing to make up ground in the standings.
