Monday production date

[MikenOH]

for 10/17, the previous monday--if that's any consulation. Makes me think that this is a target date or to be produced the week of 10/24.

Is the car produced entirely in one day? And do we know that the date we have here is the actual date of manufacture and not the date it is signed off or sorted for shipment etc.?

I imagine on every one of our cars some part has seen assembly on Monday.

this "monday" thread brings to my mind a song by folkster billy bragg called, "St. Monday." in it, he rationalizes the substandard productivity ethic on monday to the day's "saint" status, and appropriates the day as part of the "weekend." he's british, so perhaps the monday phenomenon extends throughout europe.

St. Monday

Monday and the afternoon is bearing down on me
I’m watching the clock and the clock is watching me
Don’t have to be cool but you know I am
Don’t have to be here but you know that

I’m a hard worker but I ain’t working on a Monday
I’m a hard worker but I ain’t working on a Monday
A hard working fellow but I ain't working on a Monday
St. Monday’s still the weekend to me

Two dozen enquiries are on hold for me
My shift supervisor is staring hard at me
Nobody can say what the matter is
I’m trying to recharge my batteries

I’m a hard worker but I ain’t working on a Monday
I’m a hard worker but I ain’t working on a Monday
A hard working fellow but I ain't working on a Monday
St. Monday’s still the weekend to me

Somewhere out on the road, I just wanna be free
I don't wanna do as I’m told
Don’t wanna work 4, 5, 6 days and turnaround
Want to get high on life but first I got to get me back home

Nobody can say what the matter is
I’m trying to recharge my batteries
