Monday, mundane

Monday ( always capitalized ) means the first day of the work week; the day between Sunday and Tuesday --
We'll see you first thing Monday morning.
Some people call Sunday the first day of the week, and some say Monday is the start of the week.

Mundane or mundane ( almost rhymes with Monday ) describes something that is a part of the world of everyday cares; something dull, routine, or uninteresting --
Our new intern can work on the more mundane tasks until he gets some experience.
He gets bored with his mundane existence, and longs for something different.

Now that you know that, you can say--
"He's usually tired on Monday, and works on the more mundane assignments."
