10 reasons why summer as an adult isn't all that fun
How long have you waited for the arrival of summer, counting the days on the calendar and looking forward to those days of dolce far niente and those evenings spent in the open air to party?
But wait a moment: is this really so? The truth sometimes hurts, but it must be faced, always and with a pinch of irony!
1 - The summer holidays, these unknowns
Gone are the times when summer meant 3 months of vacation on your stomach. You are no longer in school and you are already lucky if you manage to snatch the two middle weeks of August!

And, at a certain age, you know, the effects of climatic changes can also be felt in the bones ... Yes, because going from 30 degrees outside to -5 in the office is not so healthy.

A game of beach tennis? A canoe race? Why not, you are on vacation and in the open air! Think local first though. When is the last time you dedicated yourself to a sport? The risk of spending the rest of the week injured is not so remote if the last time you remember engaging in physical activity dates back to the school essays.
4 - Short Fridays are a chimera
Many companies from June to September set up the short Friday, that is the half working day. But is it really so? Often to make up for the hours earned for the weekend, you are forced to stay late the other four days of the week. So what's the use?
5 - Weddings to no end
Who knows why everyone gets married in the summer! And you are forced to spend the weekends between a wedding and the other, sacrificing your only days of possible relaxation and trips out of town.
6 - How not to hate teacher friends?
Let's be clear, they have earned every minute of their vacation months, but seeing them post photos of their summer sweet idleness on Facebook is still annoying!
7 - Everywhere photos of beached feet
On Instagram, Facebook and, why not, also on Twitter. We understand, you are on the beach and we are still at the desk, with socks also due to air conditioning at polar levels. Thanks for keeping us updated, but really, it's not necessary.

And not just because it's hot and the asphalt makes the air heavier. But also because the hot temperatures amplify the smells, especially the unpleasant ones. We want to talk about public transport?
9 - You and the flip-flops: a finished love
You adored them as a girl and at the first ray of sunshine you already anticipated the liberating feeling of wearing them. But now that you are an adult you not only have to avoid them so as not to suffer from back pain and night cramps, but you also run the risk of being looked at badly if you dare to take them to the city. Goodbye flip flops.
10 - "What are you doing this summer?"
And "a bit" like "what are you doing on New Year's Eve?". An unsustainable, unnerving and stinging question.
