Monday I'll Have Friday on My Mind

A firm in Michigan that provides substitute teachers in 26 counties reported that teacher absences spike 30 to 40 percent on Mondays and Fridays.

"It can tax the system," said Scott VanLente, Professional Education Services Group sales and marketing director.

No kidding. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that "many substitute teachers prefer not to work on Fridays or Mondays, either."
