Remember when WEB WATCH SAID THAT UNDERWEAR CONTAINS A 10th of a GRAM OF POOP?  You may want to revist that article after reading the rest of these stats…

Calling in sick to work? Don’t use one of these excuses


The Instant Excuse Ball
The Instant Excuse Ball

Web Watch has worked for two types of companies:

  • Those that split up holidays, vacation, and sick time into three separate trackable categories
  • Those that give employees a giant bucket of PTO (paid time off) for the employee to do with as they please

The philosophy behind the former is that an employee would have a bank of sick days that are available even if they use up all their vacation. 

The philosophy of the latter is that employees should be treated like adults, and if they want to use all their “sick” days as actual vacation then it’s up to them do choose to do so.

There really are pros and cons of both.  There’s nothing wrong with taking a “mental health day”, but having official vacation days that can be scheduled helps the organization ensure that there is proper coverage for whatever they happen to need staff for.

Most people would rather touch a public toilet seat than shake hands with a sneezer

Are you scared of germs?

How do you feel when you meet someone who just came out of the bathroom and you have to shake their hand?  Especially if their hand is still just a little damp from not being dried properly?

Say it with us:  “Eeewww.”

You don’t want to touch anything in a public bathroom that’s wet, right?

Now take the same situation, and instead of “bathroom”, think “sneeze”.  You’re about to shake someone’s hand when they abruptly sneeze into it — then proudly present it for the handshake.  How do you graciously back out of that one?  It’s not like you can immediately switch to the Howie Mandel fistbumptm.
