Because sometimes weblog posts are a force for evil

Work I'm not exactly in the kind of work environment were slacking off is easy, permitted or desirable. But other's might find the following handy hints useful:
"Short of redesigning your work space, or moving to a company with a better physical environment, there are ways to get some quiet time on the job.

* Sending all phone calls directly to voicemail
* Wearing ear plugs or headphones to screen out office sounds
* Alerting workers you're on a tight deadline and need to be left alone for a few hours
* Book a conference room for a while and take your work there
* Work from home
Thanks Dana. Thanks a lot.

[I do this to kid. Overall I like Dana's weblog -- it takes what could be quite a dry subject and makes it interesting enough to someone outside the industry -- which isn't easy ...]
