Where do you go when you really need to get work done?
Not the office according to Jason Fried of 37signals.
People go to work and they’re basically trading in their work day for a series of work moments. That’s what happens at the office. You don’t have a work day anymore. You have work moments. It’s like the front door of the office is like a Cuisinart. You walk in, and you’re day is shredded to bits. 15 minutes here; 30 minutes there. And then something else happens… then something else… and before you know it, it’s 5 pm. And you look back on your day and you realize you didn’t get anything done.</p>
