no work on monday campaign!

I just couldn't function today. My thoughts were everywhere. I was working on at least 5/6 different documents, phoning and smsing all at once! If I was at home my house would be spotless, instead I arrived home exhausted . We have no water in the house because someone attempted to steal a copper pipe on Sunday morning - apparently copper is worth a bit in this country. Makes you think- people are that desperate that they disturb a perfectly good sunday sleep in for a few rand. aaah I really loathe the admin that it causes!
Employment is a huge issue in this country - Daily I meet people who struggle to find work and opt to get a disability grant for a measly R820 a month. Tik sounds like a reasonably cheap escape with stressors like that!
I've done it again - gone off the topic - as you can see I shouldn't be working on mondays!

Hello
I do not know if you are in America or not, but i have been trying to get a following of people who feel the same way. I do not think it is laziness or a lack of interest in my work. I would just like to know why we work (5) days a week. Every one I know is so stressed out all the time, including myself. We never have enough time to enjoy life. And when we actually get a Monday off from work we are thrilled. Why cant we have every Monday off? I don't know if it will happen anytime soon, but I hope future generations will better understand the need for family and down time and implement this. Less greed, more enjoyment out of life, makes sense to me.
