Staffing firm Randstad USA just surveyed nearly 2500 office workers and came up with a list of the top office peeves (What a great word!) Misuse of email came in at the bottom of the list of Top 10 workplaces annoyances.
Other annoyances included loud noises (speaker-phones ,talking and ringing). The top three? Which would you choose: Messy communal spaces, surfing the net or gossips? A messy kitchen really gets me, but gossip took the number one spot. Is surfing really a problem? Oh, okay. Remember…KDFC can generally drown out gossips.
How much oxygen is in the air we breathe? The answer to the Commuter Quiz question this morning was 20% and William, who works at the San Jose Mercury News, won tickets to the SF Choral Society concert in November. Your chance to win tomorrow through Friday at 6:30am.
It seemed like an astronomical sum at the time. Babe Ruth traded by the Boston Red Sox to the Yankees for $125,000 the same year Nikolai Medtner wrote the Danza Festiva…1920. Another time travel adventure in the “Blind Date” tomorrow and every weekday morning at 8:30am. See you then.
