Worst day of the week, for technology
So what do you consider to be the worst day of the week? The day when most things break, things not work, or annoy you the most....

Re: Worst day of the week, for technology
For me, without a doubt Monday seems to be the day when everything that usually works... breaks for sometimes unknown reasons... or at least i discover it to be broken

Re: Worst day of the week, for technology
I went with the "Murphy's Law" answer and said Friday. Nothing is more annoying than having the whole weekend in front of you and your computer breaks down. 
But in general, I hate Mondays the most.

Sundays. Because even though I have the day off I have too much to do to spend time with all the tech I have in the house. (Life's a bitch).

Re: Worst day of the week, for technology
Sunday is by far the worst. Nothing is worse than being woken up early sunday morning to have to go drag your ass out of bed and into the office to fix some critical problem. Doesn't happen as often, but it sucks so much more.

Tuesday - today
My external harddrive is playing up - the one that holds my backups and videos that dont fit on my computers drive... I thought I nearly lost it all, but got it working again and am now furiously backing it all up!

Re: Worst day of the week, for technology
It doesn't matter which day, if anything (pc, air-con, water-heater, etc...) broke down, that's the worst.
So should we add one more choice (anyday) for the poll?

Re: Worst day of the week, for technology
No we should not, Jet, the whole point of having this poll is to determine which specific day is the worst, we all know that any day something goes wrong is bad...
