Start out slow... then ease up!

Since I have nothing to do at work most days, I decided that I, at the very least, would like to receive more e-mails. Junk mail, if you will. If I'm receving stuff on my company e-mail, and I look perplexed while reading said messages, then I figure that will make me look "busy".... My first step was to sign up for a "joke a day" e-mail. I like funny shit. This is not funny shit. But at least it clogs up my inbox when I sign in at 8:00. I also managed to sign myself up for the "recipe secrets" newsletter. You know, that guy who tries to replicate your "favorite" restaurant recipes. Not that you care, but today's secret recipe was "Sbarro Chicken Francese." (shhh... now wait until somebody says the secret recipe in casual conversation and we can all start laughing!) Anyhoots... in today's e-mail he sent out a little snippet recalling a time when one of his friends said that he always gave "100%" every week at work:
10% on Monday
20% on Tuesday
40% on Wednesday
20% on Thursday
10% on Friday
LOL.
(The LOL part was added by the other guy. I don't use "LOL" unless I absolutely have to, because I think it's gay. Especially when guys type it. Seriously dudes, knock it off.) So, I was thinking... "Yeah, that seems about right. Why are we always doing the bulk of the work on Wednesday?" Although, since I'm a lazy gal, I will just knock 5% off of each of these days, and I'll say that I put in a good "75%" every week. My timesheet for this week will only reflect about 9%, but my boss saw me doing a bunch of filing, and I got a high-five for it, so that should count for something. Happy Friday to you. Hope you feel like you got 10% in today. Leaves you with 0% (equivalent to jack shit) to accomplish for the weekend.
