Monday's or Friday's

So one of the perks of my job is that I get a "Flex Day".

This is one day - every two weeks that I get to take off. But I can't decide which day, and once I pick, I can't change it.

Fridays allow me to start partying on Thursday.

Mondays allow me to recover an extra day.

WHICH DAY DO I PICK?!?!?!?!?

MONDAY!!!!!!! everyone hates going to work on mondays. and everyone works fridays so your options of partying on thursdays are probably limited. monday you'll sleep and relax and recover :)

wow, thats cool! A close comrade of mine who was new to the country a while ago, was making less than minimum wage, didnt get overtime, and just got deported.

The blaring inconsitancies and class disparity really makes me feel "Canadian!"

Thursday nights are better than sunday nights for sure party wise. Who needs monday to recover anyway, that's what sunday is for.

Dno about the mainland, but the island always has hella people @ the beach on fridays. Friday is also a good day for snowboarding and such.. if you do that.

Friday.

If you Party on Friday and Saturday, you have Sunday to recover. Why get a Monday off when there's rarely anything awesome going on then. That and if it's a Long Weekend you'd be getting the Monday off anyways. Whereas with a Flex Friday you will get a LONGER Weekend.

Meh - if there is a long weekend, I get the Tuesday as Flex, it wouldn't matter, same if it was the other way around.

Hmmm... good point. Still shit all happens normally on a Sunday or even a Monday. I've been to a lot of fun things on Thursdays though.

Don't like it? Quit your whining and fuck off.
Because your buddy got pounded in the ass by not getting a visa or informing himself of labour relations doesn't make Canada a cesspit of socially deficient nazzi's.
