I just posted this in the "appropriate" forum, but I figured I should share it with my buddies.
The Two-Hour Rule
The Two-Hour Rule is a law of American business which states that "no salaried employee, employed by a business to work in an office, may exceed two hours of actual work in any business day."
The Two-Hour Rule was created to ensure that American business thrived on efficiency, not on dumb hard work, so that Americans could enjoy the lives they had earned.
Just from my own personal experience, I think what you describe could be a combination of depression & everything else you've mentioned. Sometimes it's hard to figure out if one thing is a catalyst, or if an underlying reason is just waiting to burst thru the surface.
Have you had your thyroid checked? Mine was shot but not discovered until multiple varieties of anti-depressants were tried & did nothing but make me sick.
What about your exercise? Break a good sweat & your endorphins kick into high gear - an immediate mood booster.
I just "adopted" a soldier through a website & am having a blast! He gets a letter once a week & a care package filled with basics, food, treats, etc once a month. I enlist the neighbor kids to help me fill the package - they draw pictures & stuff. It is a great way to force myself to focus on someone who has it way worse than me.
Just some thoughts.
Adopting a soldier surely is mighty Wonderful & Thoughtful Piperspal Darlin'..................................... ...................................... ........................
I should send this to one of our employees! She went from an amazing hourly worker to the laziest salary employee I have ever hired! Actually found her updating her Myspace page last week
Well, it's not exactly a joke and it's not only in America. They pretend to pay us and we pretend to work.

Then I want to move to Spain where I can take an afternoon siesta...and then enjoy a long, long evening meal with lots of great wine & lively banter!
I'm self-employed & my health insurance just went up to $414.00 / month. I just want to "pretend" I don't owe that & hope the docs don't "pretend" to make me better!
Where did you find that story? Very interesting. I know what I'll be bringing up next time there is a lull in a conversation, (we call that "the 14 minute pause").
