    I heard this on the radio this morning, I don't know the origional source though. Enjoy!

    Today the ACTUAL hours and lifestyle of the average worker…..

    –The average office worker starts at 8:09 A.M. and leaves at 5:22 P.M.

    –That means the average workday is now nine hours, 13 minutes.

    –The average person leaves home at 7:49 A.M. and has a commute that lasts 20 minutes and 41 seconds. The
    commute home takes 33 minutes and 46 seconds.

    –It takes 12 minutes before the first conversation with a coworker, at 8:21 A.M.

    –The average worker takes a 28-minute lunch break.

    –And spends an average of $5 on lunch.

    –Only 7% go outside for some fresh air during lunch.

    –The average worker drinks three cups of coffee a day.

    –We average one argument with a coworker daily.
