Monday Creeps Up

|

Another weekend is drawing to a close. Do you have that sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach? Do you? Do you? Well, you're not alone.

Sunday-Night Depression Afflicts Even Happy Employees
People who suffer from the Sunday-night doldrums don't necessarily dislike work, but they sure don't like the thought of it. For many of the afflicted, the pre-Monday funk is yet another workplace echo of grade school. The only difference between this one and fire drills, cafeteria trays, bullies, teams and report cards (a.k.a. performance reviews) is that it happens every week, and yelling "Force field!" won't protect you.

Maybe you can try screaming along with these people (embedded Quicktime) to vent your dread and frustration.

(If you like the screaming video, there's an extended version of it, plus some other visuals, to be found here.)
