Not a great scheme, but a scheme nonetheless

Mondays never used to bother me when I worked shifts. Every day was just a mixture of sleep, work, thinking about work, trying not to think about work, and alcohol. Then I went back to working (mostly) Monday to Friday and a strange thing happened. Over a couple of months I went back to being a schoolboy, and getting that Sunday afternoon ‘oh God we’re back tomorrow’ feeling… So I’ve offset that now by making Monday mornings as simple, busy and as much fun as possible. So I do all my rotas, I do all my stock checks, and I do any little staff appraisals or meetings that I need to catch up on. Because I now know that I’ll have a relatively relaxed time in my office all morning on a Monday, I actually look forward to getting there. It’s all psychological trickery, and I know that, but who cares as long as it helps?
Now all I have to do is sort out Tuesday to Friday….
