Fourth Rule of Management: No One Is Sick On Wednesdays

Dear Little Brother,

Now that you are in charge of a group of people, I will let you in on a little secret that you may have not noticed before you were put in charge:

Rarely does anyone ever call in sick on Wednesday.

Fridays?

All the time.

Mondays?

Yep — Almost as bad as Fridays.

But almost never on a Wednesday.

So whenever flu season rolls around (or the hiccups or whatever), just remember – you are going to need to plan your work goals around some of your people just being out sick on any given Friday.

Or Monday.

I have always noticed that somehow Wednesdays seem to be good for getting stuff done that requires people … actually being at work.

Love,
Justin
