Monday blues
-
Hi Its Monday today. After spending two days going around and enjoying.. I did not want to come to office today. I am not able to cope to the change. I am feeling depressed today and do not want to speak to anyone around. And its 4 O clock in the afternoon. Is it monday blues. How to enlighten own mood? Nothing is working today.? Not able to concentrate on work just spending time on Net. My Team leader is going to give me hard time at 6 O clock when he will ask me the status. This happens to me every Monday. regards Naga

Get a large cup of coffee and a straw.... try to have sips with the straw just about 1mm above the coffee layer.... expect great sounds...thats fun man....or atleast somebody will come and give u work or ask you to go early :laugh:
Yeah, that's awesome advice! I'd give it a go, but I don't like coffee, nor am I allowed.

Speak to your management and ask them not to pay for Mondays and stay home, or go around and enjoy as you did for two days. You can enjoy a three day weekend, every week. If you feel depressed on Tuesdays too, follow the same method. After all, people who work on Mondays are nerdy idiots; they don't have a life.

Just spent some time in our company's Gym. Feeling much better. Now I will work till 10.. so that I can merge into the working culture and tomorrow I wont find it difficult.. We have project deadlines coming very close. By the way my Saturday is good . I can switch myself so immedietely from working to fun Mode. Only Monday is the problem.

Take Mondays off. :rolleyes: Seriously, though, Marc's answer isn't too far from the truth. If Monday morning is that much of a drag that it regularly lasts all day, you might want to consider a new line of work or a new company. If you really do enjoy your job and company, then just remember the good times you had over the weekend and think about how the money you're earning will help you enjoy more good times in the future. It's pretty much a matter of just being an adult and realizing you're going to have to work, unless you want to be homeless, so there's no point in moping around about it.

The first type went to college and chose software development because they thought it would be a good way to make a living. The second type, whether they went to school or learned on their own, are addicts. They somehow discovered programming, played around with it for a bit, and soon found themselves sitting at the compiler for hours or days on end, not even wanting to get up to go to the bathroom. Their most frequently uttered phrase is, "I'll get right to that. Just one more compile..." It's been my experience that after a few years years, the first type is almost always miserable at worst, dulled, lifeless and unhappy at best. If programming isn't an addictive form of escapism for you (similar to drinking, drugs, playing music, etc.) that you do for fun even when you're not at work, then you should really consider getting out of this business before you ruin your life.

So not only do you cheat on your wife, but you're lazy too. Are you new at this day-to-day living stuff? I'm tellin' ya Ragu, you're definitely not presenting a shining example of Indian manhood.

hehe... Well, seeing as you've got the smiley going on, I'd surmise you're not moping about, Chris. So you're in the clear. ;) I'd also bet, if I was that sort of fellow, that you've forged your way in career(s) doing things you enjoy, even on Mondays.

How about sucking it up, or looking for a different employer?

You do realize you're talking to Ragu - the semi-literate Indian malcontent who couldn't form a cohesive insult if it was written down for him in his own language (if he can indeed read - he certainly has no talent where writing is concerned). By this time tomorrow, this thread will probably have been moved to the soapbox. In fact, I'd like to lobby that this post be moved to the soapbox where it can be properly milked for all it's worth.
