US survey: 1 in 5 telecommuters work an hour or less a day
Almost one in five Americans who work from home only clock in for an hour or less a day, according to a survey, while a third stay in their pyjamas.
Forty per cent of telecommuters say they work between four and seven hours, 17 per cent are doing the bare minimum and just 35 per cent are working eight or more hours, the CareerBuilder survey of 5,299 people revealed.
As bad as that sounds, it’s much better than it was in 2007, when only 18 per cent were able to manage eight hours or more.

Interesting stats for telecommuters like myself. I will say though some days are much busier than others. And while I am on the clock for a set period, work carries over into my nights and weekends often.

Nation of adults who will write like children?
A glance at teen stars Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber’s letters to their younger selves makes one thing clear: their handwriting is terrible. In the letters, part of the Habbo Celebrity “Advice to My Teenage Self” book, the content is messy and their cursive signatures are barely legible.
The handwriting of today’s teen stars “is so atrocious, it’s talked about and recognized through the industry,” says Justin King, a Toronto-based paparazzi for Flynet Pictures and independent autograph seller. “With stars ages 30 and above, they generally have a much more full, legible signature. When you deal with these new people like [teen actress] Elle Fanning, you’re lucky if you get an E and F and a heart for her signature.”
