According to a study carried out by the British company Marmite, the malaise on Monday mornings means, among other things, that, on average, people do not start smiling until 11:16 am . Additionally, at work performance is limited to 3-5 hours of productive work and we are 50% more likely to be late for "work" this day of the week. Furthermore, the study estimates that individuals between the ages of 45 and 54 spend more than 12 minutes complaining every Monday. And workers spend more time talking to their colleagues this day of the week.
The study also revealed that some activities to improve the emotional burden of knowing that the work week starts are having sex, eating chocolate and watching television . Planning a trip also reduces the tedium of Mondays.
