Snake Eating

I first heard of snake eating when I entered my secondary school, I joined Track and Field as a middle distance runner, we have to run to East Coast Park for our training. The term 'eat snake' was taught to me by one of my teachers in charge. As he is old (50's), he would cycle behind us while the other teacher would run in front. Everytime we hide somewhere and not go for training he would find us and say 'eat snake ah!' and sometimes he would join us...for a while before making us go back to complete our runs. :) He made our training fun and these eat snake sessions help bond the team.
Now that I'm working, I tend to eat snake alot too. Like now, I'm suppose to be at work, but I'm home writing this... Thats one of the good points about working in the sales line, your time is yours to plan. Its not that I don't work, but when I work I get things done quickly, then I'll have time to relax.
But I feel that alot of companies don't understand it, they feel that if you can complete your work so quickly, then you shall get more work done. Perhaps its because of this reason, many office personnals work slowly, its shows that you are working all time, probably have to OT too and that the workload is more than enough for you. Actually, these people are eating snake too, they surf the net, chat on the phone, chat on msn, reading newspaper in office, its just that at the end of the day, they OT to complete the stuff they could have completed before lunch. But its ok you see, some bosses love seeing their staff OT-ing and staff don't mind OT pay.
