e-recess

required online morning break for employees

all employees would be required at the same time to go online and play - no work or financial or business related pursuits allowed (no you can't check your stocks). e-recess is for visiting game sites, humor sites, art sites, chat sites, etc.

       All employees would also have to be required to go home at 5:00 instead of staying late to complete work. Otherwise they'd inevitably end up having to stay later than they would if they hadn't taken an "e-recess" break.

       Recess or not, anything that forces me home at 5:00 would be welcome.

       But what about the dedicated workaholic that has more fun working than playing? (Note: I'm not EVEN close to being one of these people...but I know they exist.)

       isn't this what one does when ones boss is away and there is no large looming project needing to be done right NOW anyway?

       It's what I'm doing now (and have been since getting back from the pub this afternoon where I spent an hour or so watching Wimbledon)

       great idea - but additional mental strain would require remission of hours - so home at 4.00 -frances

       Doesn't everyone do this anyway?

       I'm doing it right now...and for the last 21 hours I've spent here.
