When I was working my favorite working day if the week was Thursday. It was near end of week and any projects scheduled for weekend rollout were signed off by change group or postponed.

Friday was always work from home (even in early 2000's) and actually more productive than in the office. I did move to 2 days a week in office from 2008 to 2016 and 3 from home.

 

 Is I'm retired I don't get that Friday feeling anymore :-)

I would say Sunday evening blues -  but I enjoyed my last 10 years at work and used to enjoy Mondays with its post implementation meetings and wash up meetings.

Anyone else no longer get that Friday feeling because they are retired or work from home?

I don't know what you mean by "that Friday feeling". How did you feel? (you haven't said in your OP)

I still do get it, the thought of the weekend still stays with me.

@Andy Hughes - We tend to stay home at weekends to avoid the crowds and do things that involve shops or days out to weekday.

Most of the time I struggle to know what day it is to be honest! 

Although I do something I really love on a Saturday so in a way I do get that Friday feeling. 

I was a civil servant until the age of 40.  We worked Monday to Friday.  Friday meant that I had two whole days of peace.

I am now 60 and haven't been able to work since 2003. 

I do voluntary work on a Friday and a Sunday. 

Fridays are still special, a!though it is the only day I have to get up early.  Sundays have a later start and a more flexible going home time.  I go home when my brain seizes up and I am too tired to think.😁

 

The last full time job I did was as a railway station supervisor, which meant working at weekends.  So there wasn't really much of a 'Friday feeling' to the job, except that the late shift on that day (when the trains were always totally packed) was known as 'Tits Up Friday' because everything always seemed to go wrong then!
