Wasted Time At Work Costing Companies Billions


There were two statistics I found interesting:







Year of Birth

Time Wasted Per Day


1930-1949

0.50 hrs.


1950-1959

0.68 hrs.


1960-1969

1.19 hrs.


1970-1979

1.61 hrs.


1980-1985

1.95 hrs.






Top 5 Time-Wasting States


State

Time Wasted (hours/day)

Salary Dollars Wasted (per year)


1 Missouri

3.2 hrs.

$28.1 billion


2 Indiana

2.8 hrs.

$25.1 billion


3 Kentucky

2.8 hrs.

$15.4 billion


4 Wisconsin

2.8 hrs.

$23.8 billion


5 Nevada

2.7 hrs.

$9.8 billion


OK, based on the year I was born, the state I'm in, and the field I'm in, no wonder I've got over 1000 posts!

Okay, while I may be prone to wasting over a hour and a hlf at work each day, at least I am not in a top five state. But I also figure this, there are many days I do not get up and walk away from my desk for lunch. There are also many days that I do not leave on time. So, if I combine those two things, it is almost like I waste my lunch hour everyday. It is true, but I am also really just trying to justify my surfing.

Phat Cat - Isn't that special? Too bad Star does play sports, she could have her very own ball. It is always nice to have your name on the ball. That way no one can take it.


By the way, how is the forest fire? You didn't catch your tail on fire did you?

It's still burning, but kind of at a stand still. Tomorrow they are predicting a difficult fire day with the winds and heat. But my house is still there!

May it pour down rain in the county. That way everyone will be okay. Have you tried a rain dance? Kids love hoping around, have them do it.
