Are you constantly distracted from work? Hire a clapper!

San Francisco programmer, writer and entrepreneur Manish Network has found a way to more than double his productivity. Using the RescueTime program , which registers how much time a user spends on each visited site, he found out that only 38% of his working time is busy. He posted on Craigslist an ad about hiring an assistant who could, during work hours, sit next to him at home or at a nearby cafe and monitor his work. As soon as he gets distracted in order to read Reddit, Facebook or any other time eater, the assistant is obliged to slap him.



The next morning, a girl named Kara, whom Manish had chosen, set to work. The result exceeded all expectations. During the experiment, the productivity of Manisha jumped to 98% percent. And the quality of work was also higher than usual.
