I HAVE ONE HOUR TO GET SOME WORK DONE BEFORE MY MEETING.

BUT I CAN'T CONCENTRATE WHEN I'M HUNGRY, SO I NEED A SNACK.

THIS SNACK IS MAKING ME THIRSTY.

THE LABEL ON THIS SHIRT IS BUGGING ME. I NEED TO CUT IT OFF.

A QUICK TRIP TO THE RESTROOM AND THEN I CAN GET DOWN TO WORK.

UGH. I HAVE FIFTEEN MESSAGES SINCE I LEFT MY DESK.

NOW IT'S TOO CLOSE TO MY MEETING TO START A NEW TASK.

HOW'S WORK?

HOW WOULD I KNOW?
