Why Wednesday is the Best Day to Take Off Work

The next time you need a day off…take it on a Wednesday! A professor at the University of Texas who focuses on time and communication found it’s the best day of the week to take off. Here’s why. We get into a routine of five days of work, then the two-day weekend. When we take a Wednesday off, we go: two days of work, day off, two days of work, two days off. when we break up our rhythm like that, it breaks us out of our routines. You’ll likely feel less stressed and overwhelmed at work because you’re not staring down yet another five-day week. You should also feel more excited about your time off because it’s such a non-traditional day like…kind of like having a snow day as a kid.
