That is why you review and edit

nicocoer.bsky.social•27 days ago

Skill issue.

thomascrow.bsky.social•28 days ago

Is that why recent executive orders reek of Francis Yockey?

wanderolah.bsky.social•28 days ago

Can be reduced significantly with practice

sanctumobscurus.bsky.social•28 days ago

been there done this

shoutsatclouds.bsky.social•28 days ago

In the second part of the meeting, I ripped V's top off, exposing the perfect roundness of her business unit's P&L statement for the second quarter.

barnesandnoble.com•28 days ago

you get it

feral-kindness.bsky.social•28 days ago

Well fortunately for you, I would never stoop to not giving my full time and Zaphod Beeblebrox to anyone I’m talking to, so you won’t have to worry about a thing!

pinka-nana-banana.bsky.social•28 days ago

This is where my ADHD is the star of the show!

theogq.bsky.social•25 days ago

Too many people think they can multitask. Even more believe "multitasking" is real. You've been conditioned to think you can do more, consume more, produce more; but you can't. Shit been getting sloppy for awhile now. Slow down, unplug; now focus.

HumanGPT’s hallucinate as well? ;)

reinventingdad.bsky.social•28 days ago

Can confirm.

ivegotnofilter.bsky.social•28 days ago

Why are you talking shit about audiobooks?

Sit the hell down.

amaranthbell.bsky.social•28 days ago

What if I'm inly pretending to work?

mikesgrrl.bsky.social•28 days ago

Happens alllll the time.

born2disappoint.bsky.social•28 days ago

Ah my thoughts do that on their own 😅 no audiobook needed! Only preferred!

rebeccajm.bsky.social•28 days ago

I only type numbers so I’m safe

groeblbubble.bsky.social•28 days ago

That sounds like a load of bullsh it was the best of times.

themosersaurus.bsky.social•28 days ago

I also don’t recommend listening to the audiobook version of “The Art of Happiness” by the Dalai Lama while driving.
That’s a good way to zen yourself right off the road.

cenelson.bsky.social•28 days ago

I may or may have not done this more than once. 😁

someguyinaden.bsky.social•28 days ago

Ooooh, that is why my boss asked me about the questionable steps to a more efficient workforce when I was listening to fifty shades of gray.

joppeschmalfi.bsky.social•28 days ago

It's real. Listening to true crime and writing out process instructions for new hires, not a great combo. 🫣

hannahwfoxx.bsky.social•28 days ago

I learned the hard way 🫣

hilifehero.bsky.social•28 days ago

I-twice- missed my exit to work listening to No Country for Old Men

rbl1.bsky.social•28 days ago

Explain please

zafodbeeblebrox.bsky.social•27 days ago

During a recent Zoom call, I shouted out "AH HA!!!" suddenly. I had been listening to my "Where's Waldo?" audiobook.

zafodbeeblebrox.bsky.social•27 days ago

Trump Admin staff clearly listening to "1984" while drafting Executive Orders.

zafodbeeblebrox.bsky.social•27 days ago

My boss definitely did not appreciate "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times" in the intro to last month's P&L Report.

bordothebard.bsky.social•28 days ago

Is it a copyright issue if I accidentally type the full text of an audiobook into an email by accident.

brucereville.bsky.social•28 days ago

Been there Done that

diegolivasarana.bsky.social•25 days ago

I've been there so many times. Also, audiobook aside, when you are working while having an important conversation with your wife or dad or friend and accidentally type what you are talking with them 😂

miahinwonderland.bsky.social•28 days ago

I do this all of the time 🤣🤣🤣

alex-e-dreemurr.bsky.social•27 days ago

Ooh I do that a lot! If not with music, then tangent lines of thought. I didn't know there was a name for it.

hanlstu.bsky.social•28 days ago

One of the many reasons I can't do audiobooks, my ADHD would force me to either focus on the book and ignore work or vice versa lol

retinajess.bsky.social•28 days ago

Working on patient charts and reading spicy books. Not a great combo...but can be funny.

rkames.bsky.social•28 days ago

We all writing 50 Shades Of Invoice #WE39563

panterri-croi.bsky.social•28 days ago

This is deeply concerning to me... Since I do so much typing as a delivery driver.

jellibeanz.bsky.social•28 days ago

Been there, done that 🤣
I can't listen to audio books while driving. I'd get distracted!

bjoh13.bsky.social•28 days ago

This is also why I can’t listen to music with any lyrics while working

javajunkymonkey.bsky.social•28 days ago

Funny.

gadweller.bsky.social•28 days ago

Hahahaha

jackieny.bsky.social•28 days ago

but my brain does this already without listening to a book 🤔 is that still called dialogue misplacement?

dirtyboy69.bsky.social•28 days ago

Nice, smut in your reports. Most likely a way to figure out if anyone ever reads that stuff.

brazen-scribe75.bsky.social•28 days ago

Too late. lol Been there and will continue to do that.

ponywoman.bsky.social•27 days ago

I've done that before. Typed what I heard. 😀

loritraver.bsky.social•28 days ago

A few jobs back, I covered for the receptionist while she took lunch. I brought the book I was reading. It mentioned murder so when the phone rang that was the last thing I had read. I answered, "Thank you for calling __. How may I hurt you?" Neither I nor the person who called could stop laughing.

barnesandnoble.com•28 days ago

Hahahahaha

melodiacat.bsky.social•28 days ago

Happens all the time…

hippieheathlene.bsky.social•28 days ago

Worth it

sprinkleso.bsky.social•28 days ago

When your your annual review somehow becomes 🌶️🌶️🌶️

garyrc1453.bsky.social•28 days ago

Contrary to the term commonly used in business, human ability to “multitask” is very limited. Just focus on what you need to do or what you need to hear, then move to the next thing.

rebeccajm.bsky.social•28 days ago

I have ADHD and a repetitive job. I can multitask just fine.
