No, I’m on the couch eating Selena Gomez cookies
Pro
Selena Gomez cookies.. tell me more
Oh yeah.. How do you handle it? Lately, I’ve been letting the kids stay up a little later so we can do something fun together, which makes the transition feel softer.
Pro
I try to do soft errands— things I enjoy doing vs tasks that feel like I’m preparing for work. I’ll spend the day cooking and doing light shopping and then wrap with a movie or some time gaming
Honestly, no not too bad. I had two meetings cancel for tomorrow morning, so my day will be a little lighter than I expected. So, that is a major plus for me! I’m just a little tired right now so I’m hoping to go to bed a little earlier.
Pro
Nothing better than cancellations on a Monday!
Nope. I'm still in the "honeymoon phase" of my job and I don't dread it yet. I'm hoping that doesn't change, but for now I'm enjoying the feeling of not stressing out about Monday.
Pro
That’s the best feeling. I hope it lasts as long as possible for you! I will say I get it less and less in my current role compared to past jobs. But it does still hit sometimes
If I ever had this feeling, I would quit my job once I found something better. Life is too short to work at a place that causes this type of anxiety. Constant anxiety and stress literally takes years off your life.
Pro
It’s less anxiety, though I’ve had that at prior jobs and I left for that reason, and more just the dread of having to be “on” for the next 5 days.
I used to feel that way every week. Then my boss retired and under my new supervisor, I rarely do. Also, around that time, I was officially diagnosed with ADHD and put on medication, so I think it’s a combination of a better work environment and the meds.
Before that, I combated it by going to bed early Sunday night, and trying to keep my Monday schedule as calm as possible…
Pro
I do the same with keeping a light Monday. I try not to schedule anything before 10:30.
