With the Super Bowl just days away and the continual excitement building around the big game, it can be hard for sports fans to focus on anything but football.
However, letting football consume you during the work day could land you in the unemployment line faster than you can say "touchdown!"
Several recent surveys have determined that employers stand to lose over $100 million in lost wages due to employees taking time off or time away from their daily duties to participate in Super Bowl-related activities.
In the article, Shayna provides tips on how employers and employees can happily coexist during Super Bowl season.
Tips for the employee:

- Beware of the friendly wager.
- Skip the Monday hangover.
Tips for the employer:
- Consider a no betting policy.
- Be realistic.
- Boost morale.
