    According to a song, more than one person wants to bite dust.

    It never specifically says they wanted to bite the dust, just that they did in fact bite the dust

    I know but the fact people keep doing it tells me people want to do it.

    Ummm...lots of people go to work everyday too, most don't wanna...just have to

    But that's for money.

    Scientifically speaking, a tomato is definitely a fruit. True fruits are developed from the ovary in the base of the flower, and contain the seeds of the plant (though cultivated forms may be seedless). Blueberries, raspberries, and oranges are true fruits, and so are many kinds of nut.

    Also aren’t pumpkins a fruit? And similar “vegetables” like gourds and squashes?

    IS ANYTHING A VEGETABLE? IS MY WHOLE LIFE A LIE?

    ->" U.S. employees at large-sized companies (1000 employees or more) only spend 45 percent of their time on primary job duties. So what about the other 55 percent of the time? Their respondents reported spending 14 percent of their workweek on email. The other 40 percent of their working hours were spent on meetings, administrative tasks, and "interruptions."

    I work for a company with ~2,500 people that's part of a larger company with ~24,000 people. I'd say that's accurate, if not a slight underestimation.
