Day before a day off in the middle of a work week. The term “fake Friday” is used because Friday is the day before the weekend, so “fake Friday” is the day before a day off that typically wouldn’t be regularly scheduled. Fake Friday can often be compared to Christmas because of how exciting is it.
“Do we have school tomorrow?”

The Friday before Memorial Day when employees who are too lame to take a vacation day, pretend they are really working.

Anna: "I'm going to go grab a quick lunch and eat at my desk, do you want me to get you anything?"

When you're unemployed and can't find enough jobs worth applying for to meet your minimum weekly quota to keep receiving unemployment benefits before the weekend. Therefore, on Friday, you apply to jobs that are out of state and/or that you're underqualified for so that you can keep receiving unemployment benefits and still enjoy the weekend as if you were working.
Jamal: "Tyrone, did you find at least 3 jobs worth applying to this week?"

Tyrone: "Nah. I found 1, but it's Fake Application Friday so I'll just apply to these 2 Director level jobs that I know I'll never get so I can at least enjoy the weekend."
