Summer Fridays 2010

I had a really tough time tracking down 7 DIFFERENT people on Friday only to find out all 7, yes 7, were gone for the day. What are your thoughts on Summer Fridays?

  6. ggperformance answered: So true Gary! Too many cry babies being pessimistic. It’s not that the economic situation is the most ideal. HOWEVER, people should hustle!
  7. jaynapier answered: I didn’t do Monday’s or Fridays until 2009 when my business was in the tank. Today - You’ve got to Kick it UP and Work SATURDAYS to win!
  8. jlonigro answered: For entrepreneurial person like you, no excuse. For the average worker who has no stake in the company other than a salary, chill is good
  9. jtbeaker answered: Can I have it off?
  10. johnl answered: Ha, ha, hit the nail on the head. Don’t golf on Fridays when the courses are empty, go back to Wednesdays when you can still do business!!
  11. demetter answered: great point, gary. seems that a lot of people expect that these are times of working less and earning more
  12. jonarnold answered: As long as the employees are available by phone and email, what’s the problem? They should give out their cell number and check email often.
  13. davebenjamin answered: I think it’s difficult to know everyone’s circumstance. Maybe peeps busted their ass so they could take an extra day off w/ family.

  15. wesy2kn1 answered: uh well…I work nights on fridays a lot. 12 hour nights on top of my side work…so I have no sympathy for these people.
  16. rchatterton answered: I’m only a few weeks into my venture and I already see the need to have my blackberry here all the time. Being connected is a NECESSITY!
  17. thirdcloud answered: Gary its not summer yet and friday have been officially cancelled since we work everyday our week needed to be shortened. See memo!!
  18. redteethdiaries answered: You should probably write Friday’s off when the weather is nice until at least Labor Day. Thursday is the new Friday. ;)
  19. jensenrf answered: Fuck it, Dude, let’s go bowling.
  20. jimitaliano answered: Fridays are a busy day at The Maplewood -But I go to Ocean City after work at with wife and kids at around five-If not cooking that night
  21. davidgillespie answered: I think they will fuel a future Gary Vee post “How I learned to take time out and love it” =]
  22. jimdavis answered: I think it is a great day for solo work - if all are out and about - that means they are less likely to call. Do people stuff earlier…
  23. onecallnow answered: Your work ethic is fantastic Gary! I’m jazzed to read The Thank You Economy! Have a DYNAMITE night and week!
  24. maxbeatty answered: This is so ironic because looking ahead at my own schedule I have at least one friday a month this summer planned as PTO (paid time off).
