Don't blame technology if the problem is bad management.
Note that in some cases, playing Solitaire can actually boost productivity. People who are working hard can't effectively maintain that pace all day long. Taking a break can be a good thing.
Looks to me like the real problem is that you should be working someplace else. Your current work environment is not doing your psyche any good.

I do too, and that is why the use of technology as I have described bugs me so much. This person does not get their work done on time because of routine abuse of her cell phone in a work environment. What does that mean to me as a coworker? It means that I get the remainder of the job at the last damn minute and have to bust my ass as a result as she kicks back on yet another phone call. Will the boss do anything? Heck no, because the boss is out front playing solitaire on the computer a goodly part of the day. The more I read and hear about how much computers and cell phones disrupt the workplace, the more I believe it because I see it with my own eyes all the time.
