I knew there was a reason I got the Tablet PC for work
I spent most of yesterday in what we affectionately use to call a stable door meeting, and almost all of today writing a email about another website. but really i need to spend at least a day writing about a website that doesn’t exist yet so I’m working from home tomorrow. What I’m doing now.. is putting off working from home tonight.
I am so close to becoming one of ‘those’ people, it’s scary – I have lots to do and somebody stole a day out of my week, and that was before somebody trapped me in a room for three hours and then somebody else required a 2 hour email response.
The problem is I want to lead by example, and working stupid hours all night isn’t the example i want to set. Yes I want people to do work, but I also want them to have a life, and not get burned out and all stressed on me, in the long run that’s much much harder to deal with, then a missed deadline or two.
anyway procrastination rules, lets just search flickr for photos and maybe play a bit of scrabulous.
according to someone the UK economy (GDP) is around £1,333 billion but…
- Ill health ‘costs economy £100bn’
- England’s exit from the European championships could cost the economy £2bn
- train delays cost the UK economy over £1bn a year
- viloent crime costs £13bn a year
- the Gender pay gap cost £23bn a year
- road accidents cost £8bn a year
- offshoring jobs cost £5.8bn
- alcohol abuse cost £3.3bn
no word yet on how much it “costs the uk economy” for people to sit around finding all this out…
we’re thinking of creating our own think tank. There appears to be no barrier to entry, and you can call your self an independent non-governmental think tank, when all you mean is a load of people talking about stuff.
the UK already has loads, and no matter how silly the things the say, they always get into the news. the only really big decision, is what to call ourselves we have a choice of a foundation, policy unit, group, institute or society.
I quite fancy “The Jump Institute”, or the rather more Knight-Riderish, “Jump Foundation”.
