Accuse Slackers Accurately Because You Also Waste Time

People waste time. It's not their fault. You waste time. It's not your fault. Today's Information Age living everyone gets distracted. The best disciplined people waste time. The 40 hour-plus workers waste time. The 60 hour-plus workers waste time. Your smart phone takes seconds for an escape. Watch a video. Listen to music. Read social media. Check text messages. Be careful when you think other people, co-workers, management, family members, friends, and neighbors waste time while you're working on something. You're working on a work assignment, cooking, cleaning, planning an event, completing a contract deadline, and doing errands while others are distracted. Chances are other people are completing their responsibilities while you're distracted. The other people may accuse you of being distracted. Equal opportunity for working. Equal opportunity for leisure distraction. It's obvious when you or someone else neglect priorities. It's obvious like watching a one star rated movie. Be careful when you call out to someone, "get off your phone." Somebody else calls you out, "get off your phone."
