M-F stands for Monday through Friday, a classified ad abbreviation.

Gives a weekday schedule in job ads, business hours and service listings, as in "M-F 9-5."

Example: Office hours M-F 8:30 to 5, closed weekends and federal holidays.

Usage notes

Variants include Mon-Fri. Business listings may add "Sat by appt." for weekend availability, and job ads stress "M-F" to signal no weekend shifts. The standard 40-hour week became the US norm after the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 phased it in by 1940.
