Hey, Wait!

<p>There’s no one here at the office but me. It’s deathly quiet on the blogs and forums I sometimes visit (hi, boss!).</p>

<p>It’s that danged basketball tournament, isn’t it.</p>

<p>I might have known.</p>

2

<p>Hello???</p>

3

<p>and all my fave shows are reruns</p>

4

<p>And no Jeopardy! because of March Madness. They rescheduled Oprah for the a.m. or she woudn’t have been on, either. Sigh!</p>

5

<p>They’re even pre-empting my favorite right wing radio for basketball, dangit.</p>

<br>

<br>

<p>Check your full local listing. When Jeopardy gets bumped, most stations don’t pre-empt it entirely. They usually move it to some weird time such as 1:00 PM or 3:00 AM. Find it and set your VCR.</p>

7

<p>Nah. They scrolled across the bottom of the screen on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday that it wouldn’t be seen due to March Madness. No mention of a new time. Oh, well. Will check the listings, but…</p>

Why does Strick hate America?</p>

9

<p>Hate America? hahahhaha</p>

<p>yeah, that is the reason we all find march madness so annoying</p>

<p>it takes over all like the blob</p>

10

<p>even bumped my beloved Survivor…</p>

11

<p>“beloved” survivor? I’m pretty sure that’s how BC feels today… :)</p>

<p>Evidence of the nearly extinct liberal-wit:

…touché.</p>

13

<p>I only hate that the jerks managed to sneak out without me noticing. Prolly 'cause I really had work to do.</p>

14

<p>They probably had work to do, too, but didn’t really care. Fan comes from fanatic for a reason. Nothing else matters. Not saying it’s bad, just the facts.</p>

<p>Could it be that your colleagues read the article below? :)</p>

<p>Be smarter at work, slack off
In a world of too much work and too much multitasking, the best way to beat the competition may be to do less.</p>

<p>marite, I think that article says to quit multitasking, not skip out. ;)</p>

17

<p>Looks like your colleagues decided to go one up and stopped unitasking! :)</p>

<p>Marite,</p>

<p>I am going to give my boss a copy of that article!</p>
