Today’s Office OFFline comic was inspired by a project I’m planning.

Anyone have any good tips on setting realistic goals? Right now, it feels like I’m throwing darts. In the dark. With my feet.

Note to readers: I apologize for not posting this comic earlier. I just now noticed an open window telling me that I hadn't hit the Publish button this morning. Doh!

Lunch & Leaving for home when planned are valid & very satisfying repeatable goals. ;)

Ha! You're right, Klint. For some reason, I never have a problem meeting those goals.

It's quite poetic that this very post would have a 'schedule delay'. :-)

LOL. And it was completely unplanned, Kevin. I swear.

Parkinson's Law "Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion".

If only we had a law for going the other way :(

You're so right, Anthony. It doesn't seem fair that work only gets bigger, eventually becoming a black hole that sucks all energy and matter in the area.

Someone should do something about that.
