A new survey asked corporate execs when their employees are most productive, and 57 percent answered that Tuesday is the big day. Monday won a distant second place with 12 percent of the votes, but it's considered too much of a catch-up day to get the majority's support. Wednesday and Thursday are right on Monday's heels but Friday is by far the least productive, according to the survey. But I'm more interested in what day of the week is most productive, according to you.

It was tough between Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. Doing sales is hard on Monday and Friday. Especially Friday, no one wants to hear from a sales person!!

2To be honest, I don't do much of anything Monday thru Wednesday. Everything gets down on Thursday since I don't work on Friday.
3Honestly i work the best on friday for some reason.
4I picked Wednesday just because there wasn't an other dot. It really just depends on what is going on in the office. Friday is typically my day to tie up loose ends and make sure everything that needs to be sent to the factories since their work week is Sunday thru Thursday.
5I'm the same. I think I sort of "amp up" on Tuesday after "catching up" on Monday.
6Monday you have to catch up from the weekend, Wednesdays are grade level, Thursdays are Professional Learning Communities, and Fridays are Team Meetings. Tuesdays, as long as their are no Student Support Team meetings, I can get work done. Planning time is a joke.
7hump day.
8Ugh, I was just talking today about how Tuesdays are terrible and unproductive for me! I get a lot done on Mondays, then I usually push myself extra hard on Fridays, since I know a nice break is coming.
9Tuesdays are my worst day. It seems like anything that can go wrong will always go wrong on Tuesday and it throws me off my game. Friday is definitely the least productive for me. I said Wednesday, but really my most productive is probably Monday, because I feel refreshed.
10Probably Thursday. I start really feeling like I need to get things done before Friday.
11tuesday
12monday is hard to do much
wednesday feels long
thursday is blah
and friday i'm too excited about the weekend
Mondays are busiest due to that I deal with the most clients on that day and my phone rings off the hook.
Thursdays are my meetings and for some weird reason I get the most mail that day, and strangely enough Fridays because I need to get paperwork ready for clients on Mondays.
Wednesdays for me is the slowest.
I never bring work home unless it's absolutely necessary.
13Thursday is the end of my work week, and it's also the least fettered by secondary duties and meetings. So, it's the day I get stuff done. And then I feel better about being off the following day.
Wednesday is my worst day. It's got meetings, secondary duties, and is basically just inconducive to finishing my main duties.
14Monday by far - but I have a lot of reports that I have to two on Monday for our weekly meeting that is on Tuesday.
15I'm a teacher, so Mondays and Fridays are always less-than-productive days for the students. They're either half asleep from the weekend or excited for the upcoming weekend.
Tuesday-Thursday is definitely the best time of week for me.
16I got NOTHING done today, Thursday, so Thursday is bad. Tomorrow I will feel guilty and do way more, and I always work 8-8 Monday and Tuesday. Friday...productive, but I go home by 5 for sure!
17On mondays, I get back into the cycle of things so I'm slower. Tuesdays, I fully back and that's when I get the most done.
18"New" survey? That thing's from 2002.
