Just playing the game of the mainstream media.

It’s not fun.

Rise of the «Infinite Workday» – 40% of Employees Check Email Before 6 a.m., Evening Meetings Up 16%
Microsoft news | 17/6/25

Professionals, including Swiss workers, …

Why include them?

… are experiencing an «infinite workday» with 40% checking email before 6 a.m. and meetings after 8 p.m. increasing 16% year-over-year, according to a new Microsoft Work Trend Index Special Report released today. The global study, which analyzed trillions of Microsoft 365 productivity signals, including Switzerland …

in case you were wondering, “Is Switzerland included in those trillions of signals?”

… among the 31,000 knowledge workers across 31 markets surveyed, reveals how the traditional 9-to-5 workday has evolved into a continuous cycle of digital communication.

At IMAO we outsource communications to you, and pass the savings on to . . . um, interns!

The average employee …

Didn’t it deal with us exceptional ones?

… now receives 117 emails and 153 Teams messages daily, with Tuesday emerging as the week’s busiest day for meetings (23%). [Oppo’s Ed. Note: Dilbert had a funny cartoon where the boss was shocked to hear that 40% of sick days were taken on Mondays or Fridays.] The report identifies a «triple peak» workday pattern, with nearly a third (29%) of active workers returning to their inboxes by 10 p.m.

Returning? That’s when I first check my inbox.

How much time is lost converting quotation marks to weirdo Swiss “<<“s and “>>”s?

Weekend work is also on the rise, …

Like a bad moon. Don’t go ’round tonight!

… with 20% of employees actively working on weekends checking email before noon on Saturday and Sunday.

Suckers. Or, suck-ups.

The study reveals that employees are interrupted every two minutes –

As in this post?

— 275 times per day – by meetings, emails or chat notifications. Half of all meetings occur during peak productivity hours (9-11 a.m. and 1-3 p.m.), leaving little room for deep focus work. Additionally, 57% of meetings are ad hoc calls without calendar invites, and PowerPoint edits spike 122% in the final 10 minutes before meetings.

Ad hoc meeting, after you read this!

Leftists defend the idea of Oppo entering the Miss America dressing room because he is:

1. So undocumented — as to ever filling out documents and fulfilling the rules to be a contestant, and
2. So not uninterested in not being in the undressing room, therefore he can be described as “questioning,” and
3. So cute, to leftists.

Of course, butts are fer vent, too.

They’re also big supporters.

Of course, other big supporters . . . never mind.

Zelensky Says Ukraine [– And IMAO –] Needs $40 Billion Annually in ‘Budgetary Support’ to Keep Up Fight Against Russia
Breitbart | 06/20/2025 | Kurt Zindulka

“It’s crucial to have $40 billion annually in budgetary support for Ukraine [– and IMAO –] to ensure our resilience and the ability of our country [– and some obscure website –] to carry on. This should be a joint decision by G7 leaders, including the U.S., [and Playboy — if those entitties still exist]” the Ukrainian leader wrote.

It has come to my attention that James Bond is incredibly lucky in the quality of women he encounters.

Immaterial is his success rate with them: just encountering so many in the first place is a real stroke of luck.

Apparently the “Fighting Disease-Carrying Foreigners” is offensive to some. So we’re going to try “Fightin’ Disease-Carryin’ Foreigners.” Maybe it was the “g”s that ticked them off.

Those Olde English liberals were sure ahead of their time:

“Preferred Pronouns: Thee / Thy / Thou”
