Time down the toilet

Since the advent of the "Smart Phone" employers world wide
have started documenting lost production time due to bathroom breaks. Of course it's no longer the 1800's and we do have labor laws to protect not only the employee but also the bosses of the world. So why now are bathroom breaks becoming top news stories? It appears that the average factory worker now spends an additional 38 minutes per 40 hour work week in the can. Why? Because they now have more than yesterdays wrinkled news paper to take into the stall. Many folks are catching up on their email, texting friends and almost 40% of those surveyed actually play games. So don't be surprised when you start seeing bathroom monitors standing by the entry doors demanding you hand over your smart phone before entering.
