You’re writing a proposal to a client, the email alert goes off and you think “I will just check it”.
Someone wants you to move a meeting. Damn!
You spend the next 10 minutes sorting and co-ordinating calenders.
Back to the proposal! “Where was I? What did I want to say next ……..?
A few minutes later the phone rings. It’s a co-worker ringing to vent about a meeting they just had with a difficult client 13 minutes go by.
Back to the proposal. Geez. “Bugger I had a great idea for a value add while I was on the phone what was it, I hate it when I cant remember Arghhhhh!!
Knock at the door! Its HR wanting to discuss the behaviour of a member of your team. 35 minutes later they leave.
“I HAVE TO GET THIS PROPOSAL DONE!!!!!!”
An outlook alert goes off. Meeting in 15 minutes! Damn forgot that one, need to go over the figures they want me to report on.
“Where has the day gone? I will have to finish the proposal at home”
Does this sound familiar?
