Is your old PC making you miserable at work?
Dealing with the frustrations of ageing and unreliable office computers contributes to workers' unhappiness and more sick-leave, a survey showed on Wednesday.

A poll conducted by Tickbox.net of over 2,700 European office workers from the UK, France and Germany found that workplace dissatisfaction increased significantly with the age of computer equipment.

British and French respondents said working on outdated computers was the most irritating aspect of office life.

Editor's thought
Really?! We thought that lazy incompetent, socially maladjusted bosses were responsible for most of the work based grumbles. This sounds like another survey by people who would like you to buy a new PC in the vain hope that it will make the workers happy. What a load of old bollocks!

Have a fun day!
