TGIF?

17Apr/091

Every Friday, someone makes a remark at work about how thankful they are that it's Friday and that the weekend is finally here. One of my coworkers always jokes that he dreads Fridays because it means it's only another 48 hours until it's Monday again.

This is similar to when people joke that a birthday is just another day to signify that you are one year closer to death.

I'm sure people are just joking when they make these kinds of remarks, but I do think there is a tinge of truth in it that reflects how they view the world. I don't think I'm a die hard optimist, but I prefer to look at a glass and think of it as half full instead of half empty.
