One team. Excellence. Caring and fun. The “core values” that, when mixed together, are the ingredients of the perfect corporate cocktail. The words that hang over your head and brainwash you into accepting underwhelming pay, long hours, limited growth potential, and the worry that you can be laid off at any given time in this “at-will” environment.

But don’t worry. We’ll celebrate your birthday as we check it off a task list and use the cake we buy as a tax write-off.

Happy Monday tells the story of a group of co-workers who find themselves living through typical company layoffs. We all know the sadness that comes with being let go. Losing your livelihood, having to start over, and facing the uncertainty of what comes next. In Happy Monday, we examine what happens to those left behind: the ones who must keep working and feel grateful they still have jobs.

Loosely based on true events, our cast of characters will have you laughing, crying, and, without a doubt, leave you with an overwhelming sense of relatability. These people are you. They are all of us. 

Unless you’re a corporate CEO, you will love Happy Monday.
