Why Work Doesn’t Work

Ever wonder how much work you actually do in a day? There can be a lot of distractions between meetings, your manager’s questions, impromptu pot-lucks and gab fests. Some days it can feel like it’s impossible to get anything done. That’s because according to Jason Fried it IS. Jason is the co-founder of 37 Signals, a company that builds web-based collaboration tools. He’s also the co-author of the bestseller Rework – a book all about how to make work work better. Although he himself is a manager, Jason has no problem blaming workplace inefficiencies on meetings and managers. (Runs 22:49)
