Script

At Intel’s Hillsboro campus in 1996, each engineer stuck one yellow Post-it above their monitor with only the current task scribbled in black sharpie. The building hit a record low for mid-task interruptions after this started. Before the end of each hour, any stray idea, email, or ping was ignored unless it matched the note. Once done, the note changed; nothing else did. Within two weeks, their average uninterrupted work period jumped from 15 minutes to 40. That Post-it line bought back nearly a half hour, every single morning, for the entire team.
