Biz Poll Results: Work In Bed?

Marcel Proust was a French novelist, essayist and critic, best known as the author of ‘Remembrance of Things Past’. He spent most of his time in bed writing, in a room lined with cork to exclude noise.

Apparently 71 percent of those responding to our poll agreed with Proust. 36 percent said YES, they have worked in bed. 35 percent said they worked SOMETIMES and 29 percent said they NEVER worked there.

A company called Credant Technologies, which appears to specialize in something called endpoint data protection, suspected that the world was heading toward something untoward between the sheets. So it commissioned a survey to discover whether workaholia was causing melancholia.

It appears that 57 percent of those who said they worked in bed (more than a quarter of those surveyed) said they whipped out their devices between 2 and 6 hours a week. Eight percent said they spent more evening time on their devices than talking with their partners.
