TWO mOre FOrmS OF UnneCeSSarY WOrK—BUSY WOrK 
anD WOrK aVOiDanCe WOrK
In a lot of office settings bosses create busy work for subordinates 
rather than have to face the prospect of figuring out something real for 
them to do (or to endure watching them play computer solitaire).

You may also have caught yourself creating busy work for your-
self because it makes you feel productive. Also, doing something 
simple but unnecessary may be a lot easier than actually planning 
what you ought to be doing next.
When you take a hard look at the things you do, don’t just look 
to eliminate tasks that others ask or require you to do. Get rid of 
the self-generated busy work, too.
You may have caught yourself doing low-priority or unneces-
sary jobs to avoid doing the harder task you really need to be doing. 
For me, almost anything is easier than organizing a long, complex 
piece of writing or engaging in budget planning. It’s amazing what 
I’ll do to avoid these. And as long as I’m doing something, I’m just 
“too busy” to get to the onerous stuff.
In many offices today, the most pervasive form of work avoid-
ance work is “surfing” the net. Web casting certainly keeps you 
busy, you’re undoubtedly learning something (although its appli-
cation to the workplace may be tenuous), and once you learn to 
find your way around you start having a wonderful time.
But  that  seductive  screen  gobbles  time  in  huge  gulps.  And 
while you’re “busy” surfing, other work is waiting—work that may 
put you under severe time pressure later.
Not all net surfing is work avoidance, of course (just as not all 
sidewalk sweeping is done merely in the cause of looking busy). 
But the surfer knows how to determine the usefulness of the ride.
When you catch yourself doing work avoidance work, redirect 
your time and energy.
