noun

Etymology: From bare minimum + Monday; coined by TikToker Marisa Jo Mayes in the same vein as quiet quitting.

  1. The trend of doing as little as possible at work on Mondays in order to reduce stress during the rest of the week.

    “Marisa Jo, a TikToker credited with gifting Bare Minimum Monday to the masses, describes it as a way to both eliminate the “Sunday scaries” and remove the “unnecessary pressure” she was putting on herself to be productive.”

    “While bare minimum Monday is a concept that has resonated with many on social media, Jo acknowledges there are critics who see it as a way to slack off at work.”
