Most weeks, I only have about 3-4 hours worth of work to do. This week was an exception, I have about 20 hours. I take time off to avoid the boredom, so I’m going with Monday.

I chose Wednesday to break up the work week.

Also, holidays typically fall on a Monday or Friday (besides a select few), so you're losing your day off those weeks.

Wednesday is the only correct answer.

And yes, finally, Harrold nailed one.

If you need a mid-week break from work, get a new job. Monday or Friday is the answer. I believe this has been discussed before.

Hairy did not nail this pole, you guys are crazy. ***

Three day weekends are way over rated.

Two on, one off, two on, two off. It's a nice rhythm. Plus it is way easier to schedule appointments and crap mid-week.

The Boston ThreeParty is always right.

Get some new material. Or a journal to write down the things you've already posted. I pity your students, no wonder half of them don't come to class.

Thursday is the answer

I can be super productive Monday through Wednesday

Thursday would be a nice day off

Friday is barely a work day for most in 2024 anyway so why take that day off?

As a non banker shift worker having Monday's off are wonderful (and we are closed on that day anyway). Sunday or Thursdays are the next best days off.

Ok done. Hairy is a NN but he's our NN.
