*my physical presence is required by capitalism so my physical presence is here. If I am actually 'working' while at 'work' today, I can leave that as an exercise for the audience to figure out; my boss wouldn't know either way. It's not a metric we're currently measuring.

I've been at work* for 4 hours, that feels like enough for a Friday.
