Almost half of UK workers think about changing jobs after  returning from holiday, according to new research.

Andrew Gibson, website director at DirectHolidayBookings.co.uk, said: “Holidays are a vital way to recharge batteries. But it’s only natural that as they return to the daily grind, many people will suffer from post-holiday blues.”
