Happy Sunday Professionals! With the work week being reduced due to the holiday on Thursday, do you find your workload often behind reduced? I had less meetings that unusual and some just outright cancelled since people were off.

People were definitely cancelling meetings for me last week too haha. Not gonna lie, it was nice. People complain about cancelled meetings, but I'll never be one to complain about that. I'm not looking forward to extra meetings this coming week though

Man I wish I can know who is complaining about canceling meetings because that’s such a rarity for me at my job!

It was a bit slower, both in the lead up to Independence Day and the day after. I am pretty sure we'll catch up this week. Nothing like trying to cram two weeks of work into one.

Very nice! It was pretty much like that for me too.

Holiday week Monday was jam packed with everything imaginable, but after that the rest of the short week was not much going on. Really seemed like everybody went into panic mode and then realized it actually wasn’t that bad! Definitely nice when things slow down and there are less people around!

Oh I love the panic mode too! Im like this happens every year!!
