I, like the protagonist of our story, don’t particularly care for Tuesdays. Tuesdays are work-week limbo. The rest of the week looms over us like a dark cloud. We can’t even look forward to close of business on a Tuesday because the next day is Wednesday, which is a so-so day. With Wednesday we can at least look forward to Thursday. On Thursday, we obviously look forward to Friday. Unless perhaps we are among the poor souls who have to work on the weekends.
Our protagonist, and his co-workers, are about to have a bad Tuesday. Then again, Tuesdays almost always are.
