      1. Don't go near YouTube ... :laugh: 2) STAY OUT OF THE KITCHEN! If you want a coffee, make it, and go back to your desk ASAP. Lingering will mean you eat something because it's there and you're bored - and that's a killer for home working. 3) Try a video conference with work colleagues - see if they are in the same boat, and what solutions they have found. 4) Treat "work time" as an absolute - if you are normally there 9 - 1, half hour lunch, 1:30 - 5 then stick to it. If you start to eat into work time for stuff you want to do, it gets a lot harder to get back into it. 5) Take a 5 or 10 minute break every hour - CP is good - in an office there are always distractions, so you probably aren't staring at a screen for the whole 8 hour day. Your eyes, back, brain will thank you!

        I actually get more done working from home.

        Social Media - A platform that makes it easier for the crazies to find each other. Everyone is born right handed. Only the strongest overcome it. Fight for left-handed rights and hand equality.

            Don't watch this[^]. It does not end well. They disintegrated a bunch of perfectly good little microprocessors which I would love to have here right now. That never gets boring.

            I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

              Are you telling us you only spend 5-10 minutes an hour on CP? :-D

                He's making up for all those missed hours earlier in his life before CP. Plus the 16 hours a day while not at work each get 5-10 minutes too! If you account for all of that it leaves... 5-10 minutes an hour for work.
