Yeah I am the opposite of Type A so I guess that is why this totally confuses the shit out of me. I would lose the accordian folder in my pile of laundry. ;-)

I’m most efficient at 32 hours.

On a more personal note, please stop regular 60 hour work weeks because you’re screwing over sensible people. What the article talks about is well understood, but hours/week (apparent or real) is a very easy metric for management to track. In many large companies, if I average 40 hours/wk and do 32 hours of productive…

Erm. I sorta feel like this is applicable.

Wait... there are people who DON’T read?

Nope nope nope nope. That “just one more chapter” itch gets me every time. Maybe it’s good advice who doesn’t work a desk job and can hide a book in their lap >_>

It usually sits out unrefrigerated for a solid 45…

Uh, yeah, that’s...not how you make cocktail sauce. That’s...why would you think that would produce cocktail sauce?

I was so worried that every story was going to begin with a college student stating “Some old guy/woman, probably about 50 years old” and then force me cry through the entire post.

Whether you’re a fan of GTD or not it helps tons to sort your to-do lists by CONTEXT.

I’d rather have a face-to-face meeting with my boss any day. Few things sap my will to live more than spending two hours on a tele/videoconference where the first ten minutes is spent trying to figure out who hasn’t muted their phone, the next 50 minutes is spent figuring out who’s dialed in, followed by 45 minutes of…

“Useless fucking paper clip”: best description of a human I’ve ever read. MORE STORIES, LINDSEY.
