Have you been eating breakfast while hunkered over a keyboard at your desk for so long that you've forgotten what it's like to grab your morning fuel before you leave the house? If so, you're not alone. In the Third Annual Staples Small Business Survey, one in five respondents indicated that they eat breakfast at their desk in an effort to maximize time. In addition, 62 percent admitted that they are transforming into a "mouse potato" (i.e. always on the computer), and two-thirds are consistently eating and working at the same time.
Why the obsession with maximizing time? Staples' Internet poll of more than 300 small business owners indicated that entrepreneurs and their management teams are working harder than ever to minimize the effects of the down economy.
