For some people the happiest moment of their day is when that clock strikes 5:00 and they can head home for the day. Actually, according to this survey it happens for most people about 90 minutes earlier. This survey found that the happiest moment of the day is 3:25. My guess is because that is when you start thinking about the things you’re going to do after work and you have less than 2 hours left of the day.
They also compiled a list of the top 10 moments of the day:
- Waking up after a great night’s sleep
- Eating a great dinner
- The moment you sit down in front of the TV for the night
- Your boss showing you appreciation
- Getting home after work
- Getting a compliment from someone
- Getting a hug from your child
- having a late-night snack
- Taking off your work clothes
- The moment you take your shoes off after work. Some of our worst moments of the day including being stuck in traffic, spilling food, and realizing you slept through your alarm.
