Do you try to find ways to avoid work?

Do you create plans that take you away from the most important duties in your work?

Recently I noticed at an opening of a new office for an international business in our area many of the employees from other area offices of this business attended the event. Now some of you may be saying that this is the polite thing to do. You may be right. And on the other hand why would these employees need to be at another area office during the work day. Do you think that they were helping the opening in some way? Was it just to have more people in attendance?

I am not sure.

I believe though it may have been just a good excuse to get out of their own office during work hours to check it out. I state that because they could have gone to the new office after their work had been completed, couldn’t they?

Now that I’ve given you an example, I’ve got a few questions for you;

• When you take action during your work hours, is it all work related?
• How much does it cost you or your employer, when you slack off?
