| I don't know about everyone else, but there are a lot of threads that are just repeats of old ones so I just give up on saying the same things over and over again. Also, there are some threads that are little more than silly name calling, and that just bores the hell out of me. |

| I keep it on at work in the background also. My daily routine when I get into work is to check my emails, and then come on here. It's good because it looks like I'm working when all I'm doing is reading all the new posts!

| Hahaha... I guess that makes a lot of us. When I get into the office each morning, I check my emails and come in here... I normally have the site open all day since I'm in my own little office. I'll check the forum from time to time, unless I'm in a meeting or really working hard (seldom happens).

| Yeah I work in I.T. and most of the time its just me and one other guy. We are in a really isolated office so no one comes in much they usually phone. We play loud music all day which sometimes we get asked if we can turn it down, but not often. The other guy is into motorbikes and browses a bike forum all day and i browse this one. In the afternoon its down to the pub and then back to the forums. Sometimes we do some work but we try to avoid it. We have about 100 people here so its quite an achievement. We are thinking about sneaking up on to the roof and getting stoned sometime. Ha Ha. I talk a bit to the building manager and he says he has some sun beds up there. imagine that. Everyone thinks we are working and we are on the roof sun bathing drinking beer.

| Hahaha Ghost! Your typical day sounds like a mirror of mine! I work in IT also! I'm stuck in a little office as well so no one really sees me go in and out. I get into work, check my work emails, and then check the forum and have a cuppa tea. I don't get into second gear until about 10:30am, and the work isn't that hard, ie. fixing broken links, amending websites etc. Normally, I just sit there and look at martial arts websites on the web. The guy next to me just looks at football websites all day. I go to the pub for lunch a few times a week, and sometimes, I don't even drink! If I have training that evening, then I won't drink in the afternoon. Drinking in the afternoon just makes me tired when I get back to the office.

| I knew some people who worked in IT. They spent most of day on the internet and every half hour or so they loaded a tape into a computer. The rest of the time they weren't there. Probably drinking beer on the roof or something. The cost of giving them access to the internet was proabably more than they contributed to the company.

| "It's not that I'm lazy, Bob, it's that I just don't care". Won't you get fired? I don't know. But I really don't like it, and I'm just going to stop going. Today I did absolutely nothing, and it was everything I thought it could be. |
