Corporate world loves a Friday! It's the ender to a hectic work week - so we can all go have a wonderfully hectic weekend ("Work Hard, Play Hard" anyone?). At my office, we time our staff meetings for Fridays because usually everyone is in a great mood, we all have a good grasp on items to discuss, and we can look ahead to the next week and it's upcoming challenges.
The other side to our "Happy Friday" is that it's the last day of the week - and you want to get as much work finished as possible to: a) not have as much weekend homework to take home with you over the weekend, and b) not have as much on your plate - since you won't actually get ALL of your weekend homework completed - to start the next week with. (HELLO stressful Monday!!) So while Fridays are the "whistle-while-we-work" day, they are still amazingly busy.
Friday is also the day that most folk go out for lunch. They've had a week and everyone wants to actually leave the office and so Friday's are usually the days that the office café is pretty empty. They take it outside to vent about what all has happened at work during the past week and to talk about upcoming weekend plans (possibly a Happy Hour or a movie that everyone wants to see). It's a form of work therapy: eating outside of the office with work friends and talking through what's going on in your work life and also home life.
Here's to a good Friday for you and an amazing weekend that you've no-doubt earned!
