Even when you’re trying to pay close attention on a conference call, it’s inevitable that your mind is going to wander. Today, mine’s wandering in some alternately amusing and depressing directions.
One, I actually went ahead and solved the physics problem presented as humor in the last post (seriously, here’s my scratch pad); turns out that given the information in the problem, Rebecca should be (b) sittin’ rather than (a) kickin’, if my research led me to the proper formulas.
If that’s not sad enough, I did some more quick calculations in my head and figured out that if the projected schedule holds, by Thursday afternoon, I will have spent almost twenty-six hours on conference calls this week.
That, right there, is about enough to make somebody want to just give up.
