with all due respect, you don't have a clue as to what i do in the office during the day, so you can't make any sorts of assumptions as to the productivity posting on internet forums has to my job as a whole

but this is the basics of my job when i'm in the office:
if i need to do somethng, it's done, and then i sit here waiting for soemthng else to happen, not exactly rocket science but i know what i'm doing better than anyone else

i've just had a 20 minute phone call with my imidiate boss so i was concentrating on other things rather than looking here, but this morning, and last night, the work i was doing has been sent to every single person in the company, still get the work done so there really is nothing to complain about for my employers


but you want to retain double your workforce and pay them for doing half a days work? that doesn't make any sense to me, although i don't know what you do so it might be perfectly fine for you and your company
