Yeah. Trying to relax a little as life takes time to develop sometimes. I fall asleep with the TV on so I don't go all thinking about all the stuff I think should get done quickly. If I wake up I'm screwed as wife gets mad if I flip TV back on once the sleep timer turns it off.

It's a way to step out of the office. When I'm in a zone, I'm in it. I have lots of food in my file cabinets(some files too) and used to eat at my desk. I still could but it is good to get out if it's an all day office day, at least go for a quick drive to the bucks.
I come from a family if work-a-holics which is why I'm as good as I am but I know how to work efficiently at the same time so I appear to be relaxing a lot.

It took me forever to figure out, thinking about shit doesn't get shit done. Getting shit done gets shit done Not to say on occasion when payroll is in the $.25M range I don't occasionally wake up in a pool of sweat or frightmare. But I have gotten pretty good about turning it off almost completely when I need to. Like a switch. Working 12hr days helps to get shit done and doesn't leave much time to think

I always envy people that don't think about their problems and jobs ..... and your probably right, their stuff gets done when it gets done.

Yeah. It's those people that don't work 12hr days that stress me out. I'm not stressed during work hours when other people are working and I'm able to get collaborative stuff done. It's when those people flip their switches off and hinder my needing rally through the job. Depending on others, coworkers, customers, vendors can suck!

They're called W2 employees and not in sales.
