Life In A Pie Chart

 

Cherry Pie SlicedI’ve heard of putting time in a bottle but never life in a pie chart. That’s because I hadn’t bumped into CNN’s work/life balance calculator. Until now, that is. Pretty cool way to track the 168 hours we’re each given on an equal opportunity basis each week. So I plugged in my hours.

Revelation: Working at home is a huge savings in commuter time and leads to more unplanned time. But I’m using too much of that otherwise unplanned time on chores, which I take to include errand-running. Need to stay out of that traffic! How about you? Any revelations from the pie chart?
