It does hurt. If 1000 readers check, and it takes 2 minutes each that is 33hrs of productivity lost. Chasing stuff always has a price ๐
Boon says
That is assuming I/we were being productive. Speaking for myself here, but that is a mighty big assumption.
TravelBloggerBuzz says
With Roboform it was 5 secs max each account ๐
Sam says

Sweeeeeet!

In the right-most “Difference” column of that chart about how people in their 20s are spending time, the numbers are not percentages, they’re actual minutes per day. It also includes sleeping. I guess an extra half hour doing anything is notable, but it’s not a particularly dramatic chart.
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Out of all areas, I still find it remarkable that one had the biggest increase!
Mike says
Present.
bluecat says
Can Ramsey please photoshop the Mao picture and replace the crane with a giant bidet?
The most SELF IMPORTANT man in the world says

John says
>>25.8% increase in personal care, really?
Not 25.8%, but 25.8 minutes!
De says
I think that’s almost entirely accounted for by the better state of pubic grooming since 2004. I’m in favor, thanks Millenials!
TravelBloggerBuzz says
See my response above.
Son texted me a question at 6.00 am today….I couldn’t believe it he was up so early!

Buzz-
Thought you might find this amusing. Delta is all caught up in their fight for SEA customers, seems to have forgotten it’s 6000 employees and thousands of MSP based flyers. Dumb-asses:

Nothing surprises me anymore coming from Delta. I so miss the Platinum Worldperks agents in Chisolm, MN, they were amazing!
Mike says
Data point – my UR miles took several minutes to transfer into my UA account. I had thought it would be instaneous.
