office space question:

I think my favorite part of the movie is where Peter says "In any given week, I probably only do 15 minutes of real, actual work." I am just wondering, for those of us that work in offices, how true you think this is. Some days, hell some weeks are like that for me. Others I'm so busy the week flies by. But I have had 3 seperate office desk jobs and am curious how right the statement is. For me, I say some days I get nothing done, not cuz i'm lazy, but cuz either I am waiting for people to get back to me, or my current work is low priority.

As a side note, when Peter tell Limburgh he's busy and has a meeting with the Bob's in a couple minutes, he's playing Tetris. The games looks just like the game Tetris Max I had on my old Mac performa 550, i loved that game of tetris cuz I got so used to it, and I could just drop the blocks instead of accelerate them. Since the colors of the blocks never change, I can tell what to do just by color I'v eplayed it so much. I was so happy last year when I found a windows clone of that exact game, it's called bricklayer. You can google for it if you want, it's an old 16 bit windows app that runs to this day. A nice feature is the scoreboard keept track of eveything you did in the game, like rows. I was playing this and it reminded me of office space, thus the question.
 
i searched for a question mark but i couldn't find one.

i probably do an average of like 5 hours of good work per week.
 
i work as an office assistant right now. and in a given 3 hour work period. i might do a max of 45minutes of real work.

today i did about a total of 10.
 
When I worked as an accounting clerk during high school I did about 3 or 4 hours of real work during a 20 hour work week. Now is a much different story, however.
 
In the first 3 months of my job, I sometimes did less than 15 minutes of real work during the week. Now it's more like 8-10 hours a week. 🙂
 
studies have shown that the average person does 3-4 hours of actual work during an 8 hour day
