A case of the Mondays
I do not hate Mondays.
I’ve also seen Office Space and refuse to become a parody of myself.
And beyond all that, hating 1/7 of all days starting at age 23, well, that gives me a long wretched span ahead of me, and I am NOT going that route. So when I go into work and get nudged into small talk while I’m washing my mug and hear it revolve around short weekends or “Monday again, you know how that goes,” I feel a pang inside.
Did she just say that? Will that be me some day?
I don’t try to be mean, but Monday-bashing smalltalk is worse than public masturbation, it’s just sad. Say what you want about Paul Reubens, but at least he went out and did something. Whining about Monday is just satirizing yourself and suddenly your life has been reduced to a sad cliché, a Dilbert cell, and there is never a good time to start doing that.

Don’t worry, once you start in medicine you’ll be like, “case of the thursdays” or “Thank god it’s Tuesday” you won’t be on the normal five day week like the rest of the world. You’ll just have 3-4 awful days where you work more then you don’t.
