I used to work for a company that (among other things) made a Tempest Approved VDT - a "dumb" terminal (although it had a processor, ROM, and RAM and was quite bright foe its time) that is in a big radiation shielded box to prevent evildooers from the KGB spying on what the UK army was doing with email.
When it broke down, the service engineer we sent was deprived of all reading and writing materials, pens, watch, phone, pager, calculator, cash, and all tools. He was then locked into a Tempest Room (Radiation proof cage, basically) with no electricity or tools of his own with a VDT disassembled by the military, and all ROMS removed... Fix that, sunbeam!

Look what happens when you focus too much.[^]
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Be polite to others.
Wear clean underwear.
Remember to clean your teeth.
Yawn..

Quote: 1. Always find what you do inspiring and fun
Brilliant, I don't have to do stuff I don't enjoy. Can't wait to lay that one on my boss, especially with the appraisals due this month.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Read that line again!
It means - lie to yourself as what you are doing just now was fun and inspiring!

Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Too late, just back from a very uncomfortable meeting with my boss.

Let's go point by point -
1. Always find what you do inspiring and fun
I am inspired by gin and its consumption leads to fun.
2. Choose a great chair-and-table combo
Sat at the bar; sorted.
3. Get your work station organized
Phone, FT and a G&T.
4. Make your computer distraction-free
Switch it off.
5. Have enough water nearby
There's loads of water in a G&T!
6. Bring in the snacks
I think you'll find a good bar will stock plenty of sensible snacks such as peanuts, crisps and pork-like products.
7. Make a daily “to-do” list and keep it nearby
Get up, get dressed. What more is there?
8. Prioritize the tasks
Gin, ice, tonic.
9. Let others know of your strict personal policies
I never undertake any work on a day ending in 'Y'.
10. Put on the headphones
Does a hearing aid count for this one?
11. Be unreachable, busy, away…or “invisible”
Well, it appears to be that way as far as the recruiters are concerned.
12. Stay away from social networking sites
I think you'll find very little social networking at sites like the Dog & Lettuce.
13. Organize your emails
CTRL+A DEL
14. Redesign your phone use
Suduko and no e-mail or SMS.
15. Choose suitable music
Sound of Silence.

The fact that I am on here looking at this article, means I am distracted at work
|
|
|
|

When you can't focus fully at work, read "15 Ways To Stay Focused At Work" while at work
and loose that little FOCUS which you had before 
|
|
|
|

CP also distract me sometimes.

Apollo 13?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
