Massive Loss of Productivity
Yeah it was another awesome weekend but I don't feel like writing about that. Instead I'm gonna write about this...

The release of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith made its impact on more than the box office. An estimated $9,231,234,123 were lost since last Tuesday following widespread loss of productivity in places of work around the country. With productivity down 84.2% due to employees conversing about the movie and angry fights breaking out over parts being spoiled for those poor souls who have not yet seen it, employers everywhere have gone into panic mode. Coffee breaks and in some cases even lunches have been cancelled.
"Get back to work!" says Harvey Sasso, President of Coastal Systems International, a local Coastal Engineering firm.
"I never do anything anyway!" says Gram Slingbaum, an employee of Sasso's.
"Did you see the part where Anakin kills all the jedi?" says Papo Bilbao another employee of Sasso's.
"I'm going to kill you!" cry Jannek Cederberg and Josiah Berg, who almost certainly did not see that part of the movie.
With mass confusion everywhere, it would probably be a good idea for offices to at least save on their power bills by closing up for a few days since no work is being done anyway...
