Physicists tell us that time is not constant. Interesting as that may be for physicists, it's also a concept that the rest of us can get behind once we put a little bit of a different spin on it. I'm not suggesting that we should all get out our lab coats and play make-believe cosmologist. Instead, I'm suggesting that we put the scientific implications of the statement aside and look to what it might say about how we view time in the workplace. Many of us tend to assume that every hour we pour into our jobs -- or particular tasks within our jobs -- is equal.
