It’s only natural that half the country will be disappointed in the election results next month. JetBlue Airlines is catering to the devastated demographic and offering to fly them out of the country for free.

JetBlue said in a statement (quote) “We've all heard it said before: If my candidate does not win, I'm leaving the country. We decided to give people a chance to recover from the political noise and follow through on their claim to skip town if their candidate comes up short.” Voters register in advance with the JetBlue site. Winners—because they voted for the losing candidate—are entered in a raffle to get a free flight to a tropical destination.

It’s common knowledge that Mondays start off bad, and things get better as we inch toward another weekend...but a new study from the Journal of Positive Psychology finds that’s not necessarily true. When asked to rate their moods on previous days in the week, people remembered Monday as being worse than it actually was.

Why is that? Researchers tell us it turns out that you think Mondays stink because you’re happier on the weekends. The huge shift in mood from Sunday to Monday isn’t nearly as huge as the rest of the week, which explains why Wednesdays and Thursdays don’t seem so bad, in retrospect.

Here are some tips from Men’s Health they say will make things better for you from Monday – Thursday:

  • Weekdays at 6 a.m.: Send Your Most Important Email
  • Zone in on Your Most Tedious Task Monday at 9 a.m. 
  • Monday or Tuesday Afternoon, Schedule a Weekly Check-in with Your Boss
  • Gather Your Team Together for a Meeting on Wednesday Afternoon
  • Thursday Afternoon: Ask for a Promotion
