Sunday Sleep Produce Monday Grumpiness
Most people consider Sundays as the day where they can readily rest and sleep all they want. It is like a mini-vacation of sorts for them, normally staying at home and not having to rise early for work.
While it is only once a week, it may account for this acclaimed “Monday Sickness” which we would usually describe our grumpy and grouchy moods when the time comes for us to work. No wonder many people hate to get up on Mondays!
It may explain that Monday morning feeling – research has found that Sunday is the most sleepless night of the week.
Nearly 60 per cent of employees have their worst night’s sleep of the week on Sundays, a survey claims, with restless nights forcing one in four to call in sick on a Monday.
Disrupted sleep has also been blamed for a lack of concentration at work (46 per cent) on Mondays, increased irritability towards bosses (30 per cent) and the odd impromptu nap at the desk (20 per cent).
