Can’t Get Any Work Done In the Office? Try These Steps
You might need to change your environment. Here are a few steps you can take to stop wasting time at work–and start doing your job more efficiently.
TIP #1: LOCK YOURSELF IN QUIET SPACES
It’s easy to get distracted (отвлекаться) at the office when you’re surrounded by chatty (разговорчивый) colleagues and side conversations that are far more interesting than the work you’re supposed to be doing. But if you let yourself get sucked into those discussions, you’re likely to fall behind and incur (подвергаться) your boss’s wrath (возмущение) as a result. If you can’t tear yourself away from the folks around you long enough to stop wasting time, remove the temptation by regularly setting up shop in a quieter spot (место) in the office, like the corner conference room most folks forget about. You might even ask your manager for permission to use his or her office if your boss doesn’t use it all that much.
