‘Procrastination o’clock’ hits at noon on Mondays

The unofficial end of summer is here. Vacations are ending, and kids are headed back to school. As workweeks across the country start back up, a new survey finds that procrastination is already in full gear! In fact, it turns out that "procrastination o'clock" hits at 12:06 p.m. on a Monday.
