Rage-in-a-can

b1-66er:

b1-67er: I generally keep my phone ringer off.  My usual work pattern is work an hour or two, pause to get water or soda, and look at my phone in those pauses. Before I had a cell phone it was the same pattern, without checking the phone.  Still the phone is a temptation when I'm doing tedious work.

66: I think managing in this kind of environment would be difficult.
I used to have (weekly) walking one-on-ones with the few dozen people who worked for me. Partially to get away from 'other distractions.'
Only one of my reports said they liked it.

67: Interesting.

66: Maybe it's possible all the directed internal hatred is what gave me MS?
Maybe amplified through a can of Mountain Dew?

Time to pull the rip cord!
