ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Missourians waste more than three hours a day at work, the most wasted time of workers in any state, according to a survey released Monday by Salary.com and America Online.

Personal Internet use is cited as the biggest time-waster. The Web survey shows that the average worker admits to wasting more than two hours per day, not counting lunch. That's about double what employers expect.

It's even worse in the Show-Me State, where workers are frittering away three-point-two hours per day.

The survey involved more than 10,000 respondents.

My times being wasted! Have to be here and there is no work - hate it. I'd rather be super busy and squeeze in some wasted time :)

:lol: I heard this on the radio this morning. When they talked about those who just generally space out, the announcer joked that he hoped that that wasn't in the medical field :lol:
