are there ever days where you literally don't accomplish anything work related? or days where it feels that way??
I'm having one of those days. I came into the office and I ran a meeting this morning and then went to lunch with 2 co workers, I'm back at my desk and I have 2 hours left in my work day and I swear I've accomplished zippy. UGH. How does this happen? Am I the only one???

Oh you are soooooo not alone. Hence why some days I'm very active on Hellobee vs not 
Today I'm delaying doing tedious work, so I'm finding random things to do instead, or browsing online stuff!

@Ajsmommy: Based on the number of times I post on HB in a day should be a big indicator that I don't do crap at work half the time. Some days just have less to do.

There are probably more days when I don’t accomplish anything than days when I do. The worst are the days when I spent all day working on something only to be told it isn’t needed. Whee!

Well, at least I know I am not alone 
I'm going to pay for it tomorrow though... everything that is not getting done today will roll over...

Yes! And then I have to make up for doing nothing by being extra productive some days...

My work is very cyclical, so I know when my busy times are and when I can slack off some. We do have some major projects going on right now but I still have days where I’m just not that productive.

Haha, definitely! Usually it's when I'm in long tedious meetings that aren't efficient!

Yes! Sometimes I get burned out from late hours, or just don't get enough sleep, and I just come in and kind of stare at the screen... And I've had to write a couple big complicated reports lately - it always takes me a few hours just to organize what I'll be writing in my head. And apparently random office noise kills my productivity for this kind of work - I've been noticing that whenever I have to write a lot, I never hit my stride till 4 pm

I have a bunch of direct reports who require one-on-one check-ins. I try to stack those on Thursdays. Sometimes I will have four or even five check-ins on one day. It is hard to feel a sense of accomplishment on those days!
