View Full Version : Do you post from work? shorty_37 10-25-07, 01:57 PM I am curious how many of you do the majority of your posting from your workplace. If so how do you get away with it? spidergoat 10-25-07, 01:59 PM I don't understand. Why would it be an issue? Looney 10-25-07, 02:00 PM I skipped out of work. shorty_37 10-25-07, 02:00 PM Well don't most places expect you do be doing actual work :shrug:, not posting on forums all day. Learned Hand 10-25-07, 02:01 PM Yes. As my own boss, though, I sometimes yell at myself for doing it. cosmictraveler 10-25-07, 02:02 PM I am curious how many of you do the majority of your posting from your workplace. If so how do you get away with it? Is that where you're at and now you need advice as to how to avoid detection?? shorty_37 10-25-07, 02:02 PM Is that where you're at and now you need advice as to how to avoid detection?? LOL.....that would be sneaky of me wouldn't it? Orleander 10-25-07, 02:03 PM I do. I have my own office. I basically do whatever I want. shichimenshyo 10-25-07, 02:03 PM Im at work 90% of the time I post, I love my job. shorty_37 10-25-07, 02:04 PM So how do you guys go about it? Do you minimize the screen when somebody walks by? Do you make sure to delete everything? Does your employer restrict the sites you can access? cosmictraveler 10-25-07, 02:06 PM I just throw my body over the screen so as not to let them see what's on it!! :D shichimenshyo 10-25-07, 02:10 PM I do my work while posting..noone seems to mind as they are all on their fantasy football sites all day. shorty_37 10-25-07, 02:10 PM I just throw my body over the screen so as not to let them see what's on it!! :D HAHA thats not suspicious huh...... Well I work from home so it isn't an issue. The jobs I had before never gave me the option of screwing around on the computer, while I was supposed to be working. shorty_37 10-25-07, 02:11 PM Yes. As my own boss, though, I sometimes yell at myself for doing it. ahhhhhhhh it's the perk of being your own boss! ;) shorty_37 10-25-07, 02:13 PM I do my work while posting..noone seems to mind as they are all on their fantasy football sites all day. Fantasy football :shrug: shichimenshyo 10-25-07, 02:15 PM Fantasy football :shrug: Pretend football that you can lose real money on :D shorty_37 10-25-07, 02:17 PM I do. I have my own office. I basically do whatever I want. But remember when you first got here, you said I will be posting a lot in the next few weeks because my boss is away. That was MONTHS ago lolol Orleander 10-25-07, 02:19 PM So how do you guys go about it? Do you minimize the screen when somebody walks by? Do you make sure to delete everything? Does your employer restrict the sites you can access? wear low cut blouses and short power skirts. I don't even think anyone knows I have a computer. :D No, I just get my work done, so they have no reason to question what I do. Orleander 10-25-07, 02:20 PM But remember when you first got here, you said I will be posting a lot in the next few weeks because my boss is away. That was MONTHS ago lolol wow, you have a good memory. How long ago was that?? I've just gotten more efficient I guess. nietzschefan 10-25-07, 02:28 PM Yes I do. Thanks for reminding me, I should delete my user IDs server logs before the end of the day. I know (exactly)what everyone else does around here all day and do not feel one bit guilty. Xev 10-25-07, 02:30 PM I am curious how many of you do the majority of your posting from your workplace. If so how do you get away with it? It doesn't affect my performance, and they don't pay me enough to really care. spidergoat 10-25-07, 02:30 PM So how do you guys go about it? Do you minimize the screen when somebody walks by? Do you make sure to delete everything? Does your employer restrict the sites you can access? Some sites are blocked and I get a message about sex, hate speech, or nudity, but mostly that's not a problem. I do minimize the screen, but not because I'm doing something wrong, only because I want to remain anonymous here. I also don't want to offend any Christians or Republicans that I work with. I mostly post when the computer is doing some intensive processing, or like today when I have alot of free time. My work is somewhat seasonal. I really couldn't work unless I could take frequent brakes on the internet and listen to music and podcasts. It increases my productivity and morale. Avatar 10-25-07, 02:30 PM I do post from work, but because lately I have a lot of work to do, I post a lot more from home. Nobody cares what I do as long as I get the job done. shorty_37 10-25-07, 02:36 PM Are you allowed to talk on something like Msn Messenger? Or would that be restricted? nietzschefan 10-25-07, 02:37 PM I block all that virus infested shit. shorty_37 10-25-07, 02:38 PM I block all that virus infested shit. LOL yes I know. I am curious about other ppl at work. I wonder if they know ppl like you at their workplace. You know about every email they send and every site they try and hit lolol Has it every been brought to anyones attention? Like hey we know what you are doing...type thing? We don't appreciate that at work.... Avatar 10-25-07, 02:40 PM Are you allowed to talk on something like Msn Messenger? Or would that be restricted? I have no idea, I don't chat. I would not do that even if I did chat, because it would distract the people I work with. spidergoat 10-25-07, 02:43 PM My workplace blocks messengers, but I hate them anyway. I wouldn't worry about anyone tracking the sites I visit, there are more than 6,000 people working here. Avatar 10-25-07, 02:49 PM 6000?! wow... We have about 400 working locally (not counting technical staff like drivers and cleaners) and a few hundred in other countries. shorty_37 10-25-07, 03:02 PM It doesn't affect my performance, and they don't pay me enough to really care. Btw what is min wage is the US. ? Orleander 10-25-07, 03:02 PM LOL yes I know. I am curious about other ppl at work. I wonder if they know ppl like you at their workplace. You know about every email they send and every site they try and hit lolol Has it every been brought to anyones attention? Like hey we know what you are doing...type thing? We don't appreciate that at work.... I have at other jobs. Once I got pulled into the office and shown the list. (A HUGE list) I told them I was bored and needed more work. My boss said "You've got to be shitting me" I already did so much. He said he didn't have any more to give me, but would see what he could do. They never hired another employee in his dept while I was there, unlike others who were always screaming for more people. I got my 10% raise, they got their 1.5%. If you cover our bosses ass, he will cover yours. At least, I've been lucky that way. Orleander 10-25-07, 03:03 PM Btw what is min wage is the US. ? My son makes min wage, $7.15 an hr at McDonalds. shorty_37 10-25-07, 03:17 PM $ 8.00 min wage Canada spuriousmonkey 10-25-07, 03:20 PM So how do you guys go about it? Do you minimize the screen when somebody walks by? No, why would I? Do you make sure to delete everything? Does your employer restrict the sites you can access? There is no point in deleting. The computer administrators can see exactly what I do with my computer from the comfort of their own office. No restrictions other than no downloading with peer-to-peer networks such as Kaazaa. And no spamming! Avatar 10-25-07, 03:20 PM 2$ in Latvia from 01.01.2008, now a bit less. MacGyver1968 10-25-07, 03:21 PM I do all my posting at work...for the last month. I don't have internet at my new apartment. That's why most of my posts are short and pointless. :) shorty_37 10-25-07, 03:30 PM There is no point in deleting. The computer administrators can see exactly what I do with my computer from the comfort of their own office. So they know about your new facination with Jesus and Sperm then LOL shorty_37 10-25-07, 03:31 PM That's why most of my posts are short and pointless. :) But funny ;) Avatar 10-25-07, 03:33 PM I have this picture glued to my wall at work http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/dreams.png cosmictraveler 10-25-07, 03:37 PM Btw what is min wage is the US. ? http://www.dol.gov/esa/minwage/america.htm Sock puppet path 10-25-07, 03:38 PM When I first joined I posted often from work, I also played RTCW my job didn't have enough tasks to keep me busy and I had my own large office. Now I have a job that I like, that keeps me busy and my office is much smaller. I still read though and occasionally post. maxg 10-25-07, 03:43 PM I do and I think it's a good thing since it keeps me from looking at porn. shorty_37 10-25-07, 03:46 PM I do and I think it's a good thing since it keeps me from looking at porn. Well anything that keeps you from looking at porn all day is a good thing I guess ! :bugeye: shichimenshyo 10-25-07, 03:50 PM Well anything that keeps you from looking at porn all day is a good thing I guess ! :bugeye: I disagree, it should be avoided at all costs :p S.A.M. 10-25-07, 04:07 PM Nobody cares at my work, except for piracy. nietzschefan 10-25-07, 06:26 PM LOL yes I know.

No one fired over it yet, even the playboy site wanker. spidergoat 10-25-07, 06:28 PM We used to spend alot of time playing Doom over our network. Varda 10-25-07, 08:41 PM M work environment is very serious and also I work with mainframes so I stare at a black screen all day... there is no way I could get away with posting at work Varda 10-25-07, 08:44 PM LOL yes I know.
