As if the mere fact that it’s Friday wasn’t already cause enough for celebration, there’s another reason for you to end this week on a high: today is also ‘National 4pm Finish Day’.

Happy #Friday everyone! We want to thank everyone out there who won't get to finish at 4pm today because of the industry they work in. We think @redbull completely glaze over the fact that not everybody is office based. What about #Doctors & #Midwives? #4pmFinish pic.twitter.com/eqvgKSgY3y
