Two words to respond to this:

Benneh Drill.

Works great.

So how much did it cost to find out that most people hate their jobs and dread going back on Monay morning? I could have told them this 35 years ago.

Exactly.

We needed a study to tell us this?

When I'm worried and I can't sleep
I count my blessings instead of sheep
And I fall asleep counting my blessings
When my bankroll is getting small
I think of when I had none at all
And I fall asleep counting my blessings
-- Bing Crosby


Suck it up you losers. How'd you like to be without a job to go to on Monday?

Sunday’s great. It’s Monday that needs to be boycotted. Man, The Telegraph is on a roll today.

Of course. You stay up later Saturday night and get up later Sunday morning. Then you try to go to sleep earlier Sunday night and it doesn’t work. This has been known for many years.

I recall a similar study some years ago, finding that a high percentage of people report getting the blues on Sunday nights. Science marches on.

Ambien works better.

So glad I’m now retired and Sundays and Mondays mean nothing to me. Prior to retiring, Sunday night sleep was rotten, and Monday was the worst day to get through. Now I sleep like a baby on a Sunday night. Of course the tradeoff is now I’m getting older, so you start getting insomnia because of age. Can’t win for losing.

No, benedryl makes me jumpy. I just tough it out....get up and read or watch TV. I found that praying helps, sometimes.

I don’t mind Mondays, it’s HUMP day that I hate — Wednesdays are the worst.

***Who cannot relate to this?***

Wy you bunch of wimmpies. I would love to work a day shift 8 hour day.
I have been working rotating shifts for thirty years! Eight hour days for ten days straight, then an evenings and midnight shifts. Killers!

Now they have me on a 12 hour rotating shift and am lucky if I get four hours of sleep (working days) a night! Sometimes less! We all loose track of what day it is and what shift we are to work.
When we finally get our days off we spend the first three trying to get caught up on sleep.

I think the ancients called it “a hangover.”
