- int_19h 3y agoThere's a Russian joke that takes it up to 11 - about a new manager who is assigned to a department, and on his first day he convenes an all-hands meeting and explains the new work schedule: Monday: recuperating after the weekend Tuesday: preparing for work Wednesday: work Thursday: recuperating after work Friday: preparing for the weekend After the presentation, he asks the audience if they have any question. The most senior employer rises and asks, "So wait, you mean we're going to toil like horses EVERY WEDNESDAY NOW???!" (As far as I can tell, this dates back to Soviet times at least, if not earlier.)
