We love Ariana Grande, but her latest track ‘7 Rings’ could not have come at a worse time. The song is all about splashing the cash on your favourite things. You know, standard clobber like diamonds and Louboutin heels. Nothing fancy.

But meanwhile, a lot of us are counting down the days until January pay day after getting paid painfully early in December (and engaging in zero longterm planning).

Real talk I wish Ari would have dropped this on a Friday that was my pay day cause listening to this make me feel even poorer #7rings @ArianaGrande

If, like us, you are staring into the abyss that is January, wondering if payday will ever arrive, you are not alone.

A lot of people feel like January will never end

Only 2 and a bit more weeks until the 91st January. Can't even remember last pay day. It's the longest month ever!!! 😣😣😣

People are starting to wonder if pay day even exists

They’re getting impatient

If anyone has seen January pay day, tell it to hurry home.

To put it lightly, things are getting dramatic

This is the first time I've had the ridiculously long period between December pay and January pay. This could be the end of me. Another two weeks still 😭😭😭 pic.twitter.com/PhTSdREt7k

But remember, at least you’re not Theresa May

If anyone is feeling a bit down because it's still another 2 weeks to pay day and the end of dry January....just remember it could be worse... you could be Theresa May...#Brexit #BrexitShambles
