Honestly, I spent the longest time hating myself for it, but I've come to terms with needing a nap after work pretty much everyday. I also am fortunate enough to get a WFH on Thursday which allows me to reset before the final work day. 

Have a martini at lunch. That's the secret!

I'm all for a 4 day work week. I've been working today, but so very little. Before going full-time freelance writing, I worked at a printing place. During the beginning of the pandemic, we went down to a four day work week and it was the smoothest I've ever operated, I swear.

I agree!! By Friday afternoon I am ready to pop open a Loverboy cosmo and unwind!

I actually feel really refreshed and ON IT on Fridays. And then I ride that high until Monday, when I feel most tired. My groove doesn’t start until Tuesday, generally, but I love how I feel working on Fridays. Maybe it’s because everyone else is in a good mood, so I’m feeding off that energy. 

i save something fun to look forward to for friday evening -  today it was ice cream. something about how you can always trick your brain to be happier

We should 1000000% have 4-day work weeks. 

IDK what to do guys, or if this is me just discovering how I work optimally, but by Friday afternoons my brain is completely fried. 

It's honestly depressing, but not sure what else to do to "energize" myself. It's just that after 4 focused days of work, I need time to decompress. My decision making skills are fatigued and I need a break. Anyone else? Should we have 4 day work weeks? 

Is anyone else completely drained by Friday?
