If the terms used seem confusing, you might read this.

Sometimes I make these clocks showing how much J goofs off, sort of like a pie graph in it's ability to make clear how (or how little) much goes where. It should be noted that the white "working" spaces do not necessarily indicate work being done, just that no obviously not-working was being done. Today, I might point out, was a good day for J. I should also point out that J's shift (and mine, to be fair*) ends at 3:30, one of his better hours, and that there was probably** a 2nd shift guy sitting around waiting to get on the machine that J (finally) is working so hard on. This is a pattern with J.

* Though, also, to be fair, my replacement usually shows up at least 15 minutes late, while J's shows up 15 minutes early.

** I didnt make a note, so it's also possible that the replacement is working, and that J is somewhere else doing something that passes for work and so collecting overtime. This is also a pattern with J.
