TGIF fellow 40-hour monkeys.
The weekend is here and for the next two days, you are your own monkey. Make the best of it.
I leave you with a comic one of our loyal readers left with us. Enjoy.
And be sure to check in with us Monday morning — as you sit down in your cramped cube — for a new Survey Monday.
If you are a complete waste of a labor monkey unless your day starts with a cup of coffee, you aren’t alone. We consume an estimated 500 billion cups of the stuff world-wide every year.
The trouble is, coffee is one of those labor-intensive commodities because the bright-red cherries that will later be roasted and slapped with a high-end label and price tag, are usually picked by hand — the hand of men, women and unfortunately children — in exchange for only a few dollars a day.
