As part of a series of back-to-school and back-to-the-daily-grind articles, eWEEK editors want know what the most important thing you learned in school was–that is, the thing that you have been able to apply in countless ways, or keep coming back to, at work everyday.

For some, it might be some core time management skills. For others, it could be something a Psych professor said about dealing with difficult people. Heck, it might even be how to nap at your desk in a way that nobody notices!

Whatever it is, funny, serious or nostalgic, we’re all ears so feel free to leave your input in the comments, or you can email it directly to dperelma [at] ziffdavis [dot] com.

Thank you.
