canada flag(Submitted by Dean Recksiedler and Marcus Fitzgerald) Some people, but not all, are back at work today after the mid-week holiday. And the real question, is did you accomplish anything before Canada Day split the week in two?

Human resources experts say the next couple of days will likely be unproductive at the office.

So, Monday was Monday, Tuesday was Friday, Wednesday was Saturday, today is Monday again and tomorrow is Friday.

Ashleigh Brown with Robert Half says this week has been a mess but it’s summer. “People, especially those with school-aged kids are also experiencing that whole wrap up of school. So, it is a good opportunity to take time and give your employees time off and making sure that you’re well planned.”

“Certainly, when you look at vacation schedules and people asking for time off, it’s an excellent opportunity for this week to give people that much needed break.”

The bottom line is if a holiday falls mid-week — don’t be afraid to enjoy the summer a little bit.
