mousmeToday was apparently declared Stupid And Unimportant Interruption Day without my being advised.
I am trying to catch up on my backlog of stuff on my desk, but no one can leave me alone for two minutes, goddamnit. If it's not messengers going out, it's messengers coming in. If it's not the damned telephone, it's the managers flailing about with some sort of "emergency" that turns out not to be so urgent two minutes later.
That survey that said an employee devotes 11 minutes to a task before being interrupted? Hah! I scoff at that number. Scoff, I say! Try three minutes, tops.
In the time it took me to write the above three paragraphs, I was interrupted four times. Granted, this doesn't count as work, but it's just to give you an idea of what my days is like.
Thank God I don't have to bill my time like lawyers do. I'd go crazy.
