Why Moving Monday to Tuesday is a Good Option
I work from Tuesday to Saturday. Meaning my weekends are actually Sunday and Monday.
Even when the time comes that I’ll be living off freelancing exclusively, I know I won’t be spending all day at home. Like I’ll have to go to the bank to deposit/withdraw some money, the city hall to pay my real-estate taxes, or the mall to buy some supplies.
The point is, if you do these on Mondays, when most people are busily settling into their day jobs, there’ll be less lines to deal with. Banks, government offices, and other important places are open during this day, unlike Sundays or Saturdays. I just came from the bank, and it took me less than 5 minutes to deposit my money.
So I’m thinking when I start working at home, I’ll begin my work week on Tuesdays. That way, I have Mondays to take care of my business’ business. A benefit, to be sure, but we also have to consider the costs of moving our Mondays.
What do you think, dear readers? Should I rename Monday Madness into Tuesday Titillations?

Another reason why you should move Monday to Tuesday is you get more of your 9 to 5′er friends envy you. Hehe..
Regarding the Monday Madness turned to Tuesday what?? :-), by all means… Hey, this is a blog for contract workers who somewhat control their schedule. Not office slaves’.

Hehe, I just picked titillations because it also begins with a T!
Tell you what, I’ll feature some Tuesday Titillations from time to time, working towards writing about Tuesdays as regularly as I do with Mondays. ;)
