Bare Minimum Monday: What is TikTok's new workplace trend that increases productivity?
'Bare Minimum Mondays' are a type of the Monday blues that can affect worker productivity and the relationship between the employer and the employee. Employees engage in the practice of showing up to work on Mondays to complete the bare minimum, frequently tardy following a fruitful morning of self-care rituals.
The idea is comparable to "silent quitting" in that you put in less effort while working. In essence, this is making just enough effort to get by without becoming overly stressed.
