WORKING HARD?

Workers around America frankly admit that they spend more than 20 percent of their time (seven hours a week) at work goofing off. That amounts to a four-day work week across the nation. Almost half of Americans admit to chronic malingering, calling in sick when not sick, and doing it regularly. One in six Americans regularly drinks or uses drugs on the job. Only one in four gives work their bet effort; only one in four works to realize their human potential rather than merely to keep the wolf from the door.
