I don't like Mondays because by the time I get to my office I have at least 5 fires to put out. Then... I always feel as if I am behind the rest of the day.

 

[BabyChristian]

Because you're similar to most?

I don't like Mondays because by the time I get to my office I have at least 5 fires to put out. Then... I always feel as if I am behind the test of the day.

Test of the day? You take tests? :chuckle:

I don't always dislike them. It's 50/50. Sometimes I love them. When I do dislike them, it's usually because

1. I've put work aside for the weekend, and it takes some time getting back in the mindset/groove of where I'd left off,
2. People can get into a weird overcompensating "Monday back at work" mode and I'm not in synch with them,
3. Didn't finish things I'd hoped to over the weekend,
4. The Monday "put out fires" Knight'd posted about,
5. If I don't work on a weekend but someone else I work with has, I can feel "behind" because of that,
6. Conversely, if I've done a bunch of work over the weekend, sometimes I feel ahead, and sometimes like I need (or deserve) a break :chuckle:
7. I look at where I'd left off with a fresh point-of-view and don't like it

Mostly, for various reasons (my own or others) it takes a bit getting back to speed and in synch with other people.

It really depends on what I'm working on and who I'm working with.

If something bad is going to happen, it will almost always happen on a Monday...

Bob Geldof never ran an internet forum that needed a daily topic!

See? There's another fire for Knight to put out.

Mondays suck because they aren't Friday evening, Saturday or Sunday.

And about the daily topics: Knight, you did this to yourself. I've often though that it was too big of a bite to chew, even with the separate thread for people to come up with daily topic ideas.

 

[elohiym]

Yeah, but the daily topic has stimulated some great dialogs so far.

Make your gold, and silver folks come up with the topic, call them Gold and silver weeks, so your not being the beast of the daily topic burden, it will give you more time to work on your thirst.

Grace, Zeke.

I don't like Mondays because it's the first day of the work week and it means the weekend is over.

 

[Ktoyou]

humm, this seems to be for working people, not old women in bed.

I will answer as if this was 15 years ago. I decidedly disliked Thursday the most then, as it was on Friday when we had the week meeting and gave our findings on the incoming prisoners and it seemed not all was done on Thursday and tying up loose ends on Friday morning was pushing it just too far. Let social workers have incomplete cases, but not psychological profiles.



Thursday was not always worse, but you will have to stay tuned to the next exciting adventure of Ktoyou to find out other worse "days of our weeks" !

 

[Ktoyou]

I don't like Mondays because it's the first day of the work week and it means the weekend is over.

How provocative and illuminating!

I asked what Thomas the Psalmist thought . . .

Well Psalmist, the reason that Knight doesn't like Monday is because it is not spelled Friday.
