It depends on when I have to get up. I work in shifts, so if I have late shift, the Monday morning is not so bad for me ;-)

I like Mondays and Friday’s. Monday means time to work and time to have some fresh start. For me I feel thankful that I’m breathing and I had a chance to improve and learn. Then Friday comes just means for me that I can finally rest. And think of what I can do for the weekends.

Unlike everyone I love Mondays best bc I work on the weekends so when Sunday ends I often yell to myself thankfully TGMF! Anyway working on the weekends is not too much a hassle bc I only need to work my ass off for only 2 days and like I’m having 5 days ahead to enjoy my weekdays. The only bad thing about it is that when I’m free, nobody is free to hang out with me and vice versa. That’s surely a big problem lol

Monday is hands down the worst day of the week. I have a case of the Mondays so I totally relate to Jeff. I try to not exert myself on Sunday nights so I´m ready for work and the whole week ahead. My favourite day of the week is Saturday when I can usually sleep in and do all the things I didn´t have enough time to do during the week. It´s usually the day I hang out too. Sunday is a day to chill out. The other days of the week are sort of okay to me because you´re already in full swing at work and doing your thing that they just scoot by.

It’s very common to hear people exclaim “TGIF!” on Fridays. If you’re not familiar with it, it’s a slang expression that means “Thank goodness (or God, depending on your comfort with that usage) it’s Friday!”


In America, Wednesday is called ”hump day.” The top of a mountain or hill is called the hump, so since it’s the middle day, Wednesday is the hump day. If you can get over the hump, you’re on your way down the “mountain” to the weekend! It’s a lot easier to slide down a mountain than to climb up!

Hello,


I like Mondays as it is the first day of the week and I have a lot of energy to do my best. In addition to this, I can enjoy what I do with my co-workers.


Most of people do not like Monday but they will try to grow on it.


I do not have a favorite day, everyday is an opportunity to be happy !!

I think I dislike Tuesday more than Monday. Because in Monday I can make a plan of my week work and don’t need to do any real work. And then I need to follow my plans… Favorite day is surely Friday, who doesn’t?
