A new study found 81 percent of people believe they’re the most productive person in their office. That means four out of five of your coworkers are walking around thinking THEY’RE the best employee in the company, which is seriously frightening. Eighty-nine percent of people say there are unnecessary distractions at work. The top four are useless meetings, excessive emails, unexpected phone calls and their boss micromanaging them. Thirty-three percent of people take a half hour lunch break. Twenty-six take a full hour. Thirteen percent don’t take one at all. More than half of people have held out on going to the bathroom to hit a deadline in the past week.
In a new poll, 49 percent of Americans say they consider their boss a friend and 51 percent don’t. But maybe you SHOULD. Three out of five people say they’re pretty sure people who are friends with the boss get special treatment at work.
