(Video) Jason Fried: Why work doesn't happen at work

Did you read the title? Did it not make sense? That's because you've never worked with a manager. See, it's not unusual for companies to hire people to do stuff, then hire other people (called Managers) to get in the way. Don't believe it? Watch Jason Fried give examples and explain how M&M's (managers and meetings) have become the design process' enemy numero uno. And if your manager fits the bill perhaps this Christmas your Secret Santa should skip the box of chocolates and send your manager this link instead. POW!
