Oh no! Is it Monday again? Well, Mondays can be demanding right after all that Sunday night fun. If you're not an outdoor person, chances are you've spent your entire Sunday just vibing or chilling.
The word Monday comes from the word 'Monandæg', a word related to the moon. From this, the obvious vibe we get is peace and calm. But surprisingly, Monday represents the opposite of peace - it stands for hustle and chaos.
Monday calling inevitably means that one has to get back to work. The thought of returning to the jarring routine full of daily repetitions annoys everyone. Sunday night is a night of self-care. This comes in many forms and types.
For some, Sundays are reserved for binge-watching shows and series. Some choose to go out and have a blast. Either way, late-night parties and interrupted sleeping lead to a lazy Monday morning. It feels like the body has gone into hibernation and is refusing to restart. We all imagined our work days to be like how we perceive them from the TV shows.
A Monday morning is more like a mourning. The Monday blues are so famous that it got a place in many popular shows and movies. Not to mention sitcoms.
Bad Mondays
The bad Monday mood has been captured by many movies. One of the most popular images of this is seen in the 1999 comedy movie titled Office Space. The movie aptly captures the lives of office workers and showcases a typical bad case of Monday.
Again, the popular comics series Dilbert rightly grasps an office worker's agony. Typical unwilling co-workers and boring office work quickly catch office goer's attention.
Cultural Relevance
Hatred for Mondays is not unique to an individual but is observed universally. This is why the iconic Garfield Cat is a character liked by many.
From Reddit communities to social media chatrooms, netizens come up with rants and funny memes to keep us entertained.
Even for those staying indoors, Monday declares the start of many household chores. This is the reason why not only office-goers but also non-office-goers have a difficult time coping with a busy Monday. Even for the youngsters, especially the students, Monday means returning to school and wading through lectures and coursework.
This is why the Monday fatigue phenomenon is invasive and universal. From a kid to an office-going adult, Monday blues is real.
The struggle is real, but that should mean you'll have to miss out on the fun. Humor is the best coping mechanism. You can sit and scroll through your phones in those small office breaks. It is a good idea to keep some funny Monday memes ready with you. We have collected the best ones for you to relax and have a good, refreshing laugh!
