No, I do not. I imply that the manager does not understand the benefits of 20% time on productivity.


Let me spoil the joke:

Going from 80% to 100% is a 25% increase.


There is no joke because I was not including all of the time spent on 20% time as a gain in productivity. Read where I wrote that they could see an increase in productivity of up to 20%. I'm not quoting exact numbers because drumroll managers hardly ever think of hard numbers. Its all (gu)es(s)timates.


sounds like an excuuuuuse ;)


oh my gosh...
