Origins of My Man Friday

In the book “Robinson Crusoe” the shipwrecked character meets a local on a Friday. Lacking a common language,

he calls him Man Friday. He becomes Robinson’s invaluable assistant thus Man Friday is defined as a

'personal assistant, especially one who is particularly competent or loyal’.

Using a character from a beloved novel as a way of describing my abilities and experience

seemed the perfect name when starting my business.
