Holiday slacking … Don’t feel much like working today? You are definitely not alone. With Thanksgiving and a four-day weekend just around the corner, it’s hard to keep your mind on your job.

The reason most gave is that this time of year is generally less busy, and employees tend to have more things going on outside of work, like family gatherings and parties. (PR Newswire)
