  • Mundai was first created by a group of lazy office workers in the 1970's, and it is the fictional eighth day of the week, falling between Sunday and Monday. Since its creation, it has spread across the world to become known as a word people use as a secret way of saying they aren't going to do a certain task. Whilst both words sounds the same, both have incredibly different uses in society. In 1972, a group of office workers: Tim, Ilam and Tony (Known as the T.I.T team) created the word Mundai when they had been set an un-finishable task by their boss. Whilst messing around during the task, the three came up with the word, and started to tell their boss that the task would be finished on Mundai. Because Mundai is pronounced exactly the same as Monday, there boss was none the wiser and seemed happy with the news. This continued to be a running gag amongst the three friends, and whenever the situation arose that they could use the word, they would. Since that day, its popularity has spread across the world, and is now used in everyday life.
