Reluctant Productivity Planner Prints

Day 27 of self-isolation and the initial burst of enthusiasm to 'get things done' had swindled to nothing.

Desk trays - 'in', 'out', and 'one of these days'.

"I drink just enough coffee to make me think I can do my job."

"Gentleman I believe I've found a revolutionary new way for us to more productively waste our lives."

Targets.

Monday around 9PM.

I came in early to seize the day...but it seized me first.

Our Productivity Plan: More Coffee

Desk boxes: 'In', 'Out', and 'What ever'.

Man being fed 'Get up and Go' on a drip.

'This spider's web proves that you've done no work today!'

"The best laid plans of mice and men... differ materially in their objectives."

The middle school mile claims its first victim.

"You don't get a lot of work done, Jenkins, but I admire how thoroughly unstressed you are."

"I've found if I squint my eyes and frown, it looks like I'm concentrating rather than sleeping.".

'Actually, I haven't done any work for a month due to technical difficulties.'

'In our thirty years of marriage she's squirreled away loads of money, but she can't remember where.'

'It has nothing to do with relativity. He's trying to figure out his cable bill.'

Rip van Winkle goes back to the office/

Stop staring at that screen saver!

'We're hoping to employ a workaholic for whom job-satisfaction is reward enough.'

'Ideally, I'd like a job where my multi-application cell phone will do all the work.'

To do list

Interruption Time Management

"Now let's check our ethical hats in at the door and get some bloody work done."

"And last but not least, organizational psychologist Ron Haynes, who limits my switching of guitars to at least every other song."

"The boss is on a working vacation and we're on a nonworking vacation."

Nothing gives me a greater feeling of accomplishment than not accomplishing anything.

'Some way we've got to get back the good old American know-how to make cheap crap.'

"The only thing I like more than running is everything else."

"Well, my pension was tied up in the cruise liner industry."

'I couldn't decide what to wear to work so I just didn't go.'

'You dropped your day planner.'

'My next move is to figure out my next move.'

"And another thing, stop sending me e-mails."
