#5 is one of my favorites. One of my co-workers refers to one of our managers as a "drive-by" manager. He agrees with the concept of carving out chunks of time - even remotely - to focus. In reality, if you are on-site, he is constantly "driving by" with things that could have waited or been communicated via IM/email.
