Miscellaneous Unproductive Time

Poza publicata in [ Lawyer ]

It has come to my attention recently that many people have been turning
in timesheets that specify large amounts of Miscellaneous Unproductive
Time (code 5300). To our department, unproductive time isnt a problem.

What is a problem is not knowing exactly what people are doing during
their unproductive time.

Ive attached a sheet specifying a tentative extended job list based on
my observations of employee activities. The list will allow you to specify
with a fair amount of precision what you are doing during your unproductive
time. Please distribute this as necessary, and let me know about any
difficulties.

For your timesheets:
