Nearly half of British workers say mid-morning on Tuesday is the moment when they feel most stressed at work, a study suggests.
將近一半的英國上班族說，週二中午是他們在一週工作當中感到壓力最大的時刻，一份研究指出。
The makers of the health supplement Bimuno polled 3,000 adults and found most workers coast through Monday getting their brain in gear and catching up with gossip from the weekend through social networking sites.
營養補充品Bimuno製造商調查3000名成人，發現大多數上班族都是輕鬆度過週一，讓他們的頭腦準備就緒、透過社交網站了解週末期間發生的八卦。
But everything comes to a head at Tuesday 11：45 a.m.
但是一切關鍵都在週二上午11點45分。
Tuesday at 11：45am seems to be the time when the real workload for the week hits employees and as a result stress levels rise. The study also revealed Tuesday as the day when workers are most likely to work through their lunch break due to the realization they have a busy week ahead.
週二上午11點45分似乎是一週真正工作量降臨到上班族頭上的時刻，結果就是壓力跟著增加。這份研究也顯示，由於體認到他們眼前將有忙碌的一週，週二也是上班族最有可能在工作中度過午餐休息時間的一天。
More than 53 per cent of those polled admitted cruising through Monday and almost one in five employees will leave the office late on a Tuesday as they work after hours to salvage their week after putting in a poor effort the day before.
調查中超過53%的人承認週一都悠哉度過，幾乎5個上班族中有一人會在週二晚下班，因為前一天不好好工作，這一天得加班挽救這一週進度。
