State of art, the art of interruption, perhaps.

Jason Fried makes it clear, the culture of interruption:

There's an epidemic of interruption out there. No wonder people have to put in 60+ hours a week just to get 40 hours worth of work done.

The major causes? Meetings, Slack/chat-first tools, notifications, expectations of immediate response, ASAP culture, real-time everything.

Only ~30 hands up when I asked 500 ppl at Lean Startup Conf if they remembered the last time they had 4hrs of uninterrupted time at work.

@stjhimy isn’t that ridiculous? This is progress? This is the state of the art? The art of interruption, perhaps.
