Happy (Insert Day of the Week)

This is an honest question: 

When someone says to me "Happy Monday!" or "Happy Friday!" what are they expecting me to say in return? 

Because 98% of the time, it's someone at work who is overly perky when they utter the phrase and punching a co-worker in the throat is frowned upon by HR. 

"Happy Monday" - Last time I checked, most people would rather drink bleach than go to work on Monday. Hearing you bubble "Happy Monday!" is enough to push anyone over the edge. If you're one of these annoying Happy Monday people, you've been warned.

"Happy Tuesday" - you've never heard it because no one has ever uttered it. 

"Happy Hump Day" - it's not the Hump Day part of it that bothers me. I think we really need to revisit your definition of the word 'Happy'. 

"Happy Friday's Eve" - I am sitting on my hands so I don't take a swing at you. Yes, tomorrow is Friday. And the day after that is Saturday. Snaps for you for knowing the days of the week. Do you want a cookie? 

"Happy Friday" - wow, we all made it to the end of the week and I didn't actually assault you. I guess that is something to be happy about! 



ps. I hate the word 'Insert'
