Thanks Robert. If there’s one thing I’ve learnt over the years, its that just because something particular is stated, it doesn’t stop people criticising based on what they heard, not what was said!

I just wanted to address the point that I hear so often about people claiming the above – especially seeing as we were talking about shrinking the amount of time (although it could be argued that it is simply doing the work in the time that is needed).

Cheers

This is an inaccurate objection to Parkinson’s law which states that, “Work EXPANDS to fill the time available…”. It does not say or imply that the amount of time required to do a job will shrink if you are in a hurry…
