Multi-tasking Is Real. If You’re a Woman, Anyway

Here’s How to Make the Most of It — We’ve all heard the touted fact that there is no such thing as multi-tasking, only task switching, and that it’s far more inefficient for getting stuff done. The truth is somewhere in the middle, and thank heavens, because otherwise, women wouldn’t get crap done. Can we do more than one…
