Beautiful game
The FIFA World Cup has arrived. Inevitably productivity all around the world is going to be down for the next 4 weeks. Employees will put in “sick” days, managers will schedule “lunchtime” meetings, students just won’t go to class; all to watch the most beautiful game. For the next 4 weeks people will plan their lives around their television watching schedule.
Suddenly people think nothing of skipping supper, skipping a shower, skipping any form of exercise they might normally be involved in. Mail won’t get opened and dogs won’t be fed. Just as long as we can watch soccer, we’ll be happy. Luckily there is nothing to be ashamed about, because one thing is certain, the rest of the world is neglecting everything and everyone with us!
Just to help you I’ve set up a FIFA World Cup South African TV times calendar that you can use with Google calendar. If you have a gmail account you can log into Google calendar and search for the FIFA South Africa calendar. Then just add it to your calendar and you’re all set.
