- We need to work together in these troubling times

- A list can help keep priorities in order
- Thursday, April 30, 2009

At the end of the workday we were to date it, sign it and give it to him. You can imagine the howls of protest that went up; however, some of us had to admit that we were surprised and amazed at just how little time we spent on some things and how much time we wasted on others. It was truly a learning experience.
