A playlist for your workweek

Here are some song lyrics that aptly describe our feelings every day, week, month, and year.

1. When your alarm goes off in the morning

2. When you’re yet to have your morning coffee and a client calls you

3. When your co-worker asks a question that makes the meeting go-on for 25 minutes longer

4. When you finally hit submit on that grant proposal

5. When you call a prospective donor to finally set-up a meeting in person, after a year of Zoom calls

6. …and suggest unrestricted funding

7. When the mid-week existential crisis hits you

8. What you feel like, regardless of whether you’re logging in at the start of the day, or logging out in the evening

9. When your manager schedules a mandatory well-being check-in, post 7 PM on a Friday evening

10. When it’s Sunday night and you realise you’ve got to do it all over AGAIN
