1.You have coworkers

You may not be BFFs with everyone at the office, but when it comes to venting, they will always be there for you. Hooray for having people with whom to commiserate and fume!

2.You're employed.

End of story.

3.Or...you're unemployed and free!

Your life isn't getting sucked away by impossible-to-please or abusive managers!

4.If you're working this week, you're taking one for the team

Hard work always pays off, so if you have shifts to cover this week, just know that the hours you're putting in now will ultimately help you come out ahead.

5.If you're off, you'll probably get to see cool people this week

Get excited for reunions with longtime friends and crazy (but endearing) relatives.

6.You have something to dress up for

Pajama days are overrated. I'm most productive and happy when well-groomed. If you're employed, be thankful you have something forcing you to look presentable the majority of the time. I promise it's good for you.
