What does early in the week mean

25 replies

BornOnBondiBeach · 20/06/2016 13:36

Have been promised results for something important "early" this week. Nothing as yet! Just wondering what you would regard as early... I'm thinking Monday-Wednesday?

Monday or Tuesday.

BeautyQueenFromMars · 20/06/2016 13:37

Monday or Tuesday.

Monday or Tuesday.

Peridotisinvalid · 20/06/2016 13:39

Yes, early in the week = Monday or Tuesday. Middle of the week = Wednesday. Later in the week = Thursday or Friday.

Obvious really.

NorbertDentressangle · 20/06/2016 13:39

Monday or Tuesday (maybe Wednesday at a push)

Pinkheart5915 · 20/06/2016 13:40

Monday - Wednesday

turquoise88 · 20/06/2016 13:40

Wednesday is the middle of the week!

Monday or Tuesday.

gamerchick · 20/06/2016 13:41

Yep ^^ Wednesday is the middle of the week.

FeelingSmurfy · 20/06/2016 13:42

Monday or Tuesday

LillyInTheMoon · 20/06/2016 13:44

Agree with PP - Monday or Tuesday

soundsystem · 20/06/2016 13:45

Yep, Monday or Tuesday.

NeedACleverNN · 20/06/2016 13:45

Early in the week is definitely Monday. Tuesday is pushing it but can count.

Wednesday is definitely middle of the week

FoxesOnSocks · 20/06/2016 13:48

Yes Monday, or Tuesday. Wednesday is the middle so no longer early. Generally for 'doing' things a week is Monday to Friday.

Though if Saturday or Sunday were being included the with a bit of leeway I'd say early week is Wednesday at the latest.

NewLife4Me · 20/06/2016 13:50

monday or tuesday. Wednesday, Thursday are mid week, friday end of week, then weekend.

steff13 · 20/06/2016 13:51

Monday or Tuesday.

verite · 20/06/2016 13:53

I would agree that it means Monday or Tuesday, but as it is rather vague i would not be surprised that there is hope to push it to Wednesday (otherwise why not say Monday or tuesday?)

TheNaze73 · 20/06/2016 14:36

Monday or Tuesday

MeAndMy3LovelyBoys · 20/06/2016 14:55

Monday/Tuesday - Beginning of the week
Wednesday/Thursday - Midweek
Friday - Not quite weekend but different to the previous 2 days
Saturday/Sunday - Weekend

I obviously know I'm wrong but that's how I see the days of the week Grin

ShtoppenDerFloppen · 20/06/2016 15:42

I generally lean toward Monday or Tuesday. Give them until Wednesday, as you never know what is happening on the other eand. Follow up Thursday morning if you have heard nothing.

ShtoppenDerFloppen · 20/06/2016 15:43

Curious, though... is the result you are waiting for something good?

MLGs · 20/06/2016 17:32

Monday or Tuesday

whois · 20/06/2016 17:33

Monday to Tuesday

Autumnchill · 20/06/2016 17:39

Monday / Tuesday with Wednesday / Thursday being mid-week

By late Tuesday morning. But I'm not as chilled about this stuff as I used to be.
