The cost of March Madness
The old lost-productivity shtick, right? Right:
Filling out the brackets has become a sacred ritual in almost every office in the country. A Microsoft survey last year found 58 million people will fill brackets out, many at work and on the clock. The estimated cost of the lost productivity is $1.8 billion.
This is about $31 per bracket-filler-outer. Hell, we use up that much worth of paper every day when we’re not filling out brackets.
