If twenty dogs chase after one cat, what time is it?
Twenty after one!
Okay, okay. You’re right. That joke is a little corny, but it has two things going for it:
- It’s kinda cute (For kids, it’s probably funny… at least until fifth grade. For adults, it might work as a pickup line in a bar or club… with someone who’s not as smart as a fifth grader.)
- It perfectly describes the way entrepreneurs and work at home professionals feel on a daily basis.
If you’re like me and spend time working out of a home office, often you feel like the cat in the joke, sprinting and clawing your way from task to task. All the while the things you need to get done (huge, slobbering, snarling dogs) give constant chase and nip at your heels.
