It’s Monday. Mondays suck! There’s really no other way to put it. The alarm went off way too early, the weekend flew by, and no amount of coffee seems to be enough to get me going.
It rained off and on most of the weekend, and I had a migraine the entire time, so it honestly feels like I didn’t even have a weekend. The migraine’s still hanging on this morning, and I’m seriously contemplating calling in sick—but I hate doing that on a Monday. It always feels like people assume you’re just trying to extend your weekend.
Some folks say Mondays are a fresh start, but let’s be honest—they’re more like a rude interruption. Mondays always seem to bring more emails, more meetings, and more “urgent” things that could have waited until Tuesday.
Still, we push through. We show up, we get the work done (somehow), and we count down the hours until we can go home again.
Here’s to surviving another Monday—may the boss be mercifully distracted, the day be short, and the week get better from here.
I hope everyone has a wonderful and stress free week!

Probably all the stress in your life is making the migraines worse. You really should call in sick. Working with a migraine is nearly impossible.
Mondays are a state of mind. I never minded Monday’s but I only had migraines occasionally and I was the boss.
You need a distraction or a reversal. If your mindset is such that Monday’s are always bad, then they will be. Attitude is everything. If your Monday’s are busy, that’s great. Keeps you energized and the rewards can be great. I could never handle a job that didn’t keep me busy. Downtime doesn’t suit my way of life. I know working under a thankless boss is gruesome but take pleasure in your accomplishments. And build on them as you make efforts to improve your situation, elsewhere. A bad referral can be damaging. I used to hate Fridays because that’s when work slacked off.
Hang in there.
