Erm........... yes but I have other windows open to click on when the boss walks in! Also having a foreign (Chilean) boss helps too as he doesn't know what a Morris Minor is, so reading 'The Morris Minor Own...' at the bottom of the screen is fairly meaningless to him. Also, he takes absolutely no interest in his employees welfare/interests so is unlikely to ever find out what a Morris Minor is!! :lol:

I used to - however I'm nolonger allowed so can only get on during lunchbreak and when at home.
[actually I never was allowed to, I just hadn't been told off for doing it but considering how much I did use it in work time I was lucky to get just a verbal warning :o]

I read at work, but not often post- as its against the rules at work to post to forums, but "limited personal use of company computing equipment is allowed provided corporate goals are not affected".

I should be working on the traveller now.............

Though it isnt illegal yet , your not allowed to use a mobile phone while driving but I have yet to hear of you not being allowed to check online forums :wink: only a matter of time though :D

I wonder if the web editor ever comes on here when he's meant to be working..... :lol:

In the past I probably did eat a little into work time (just overlap from lunch or before work). I voted no as I never am on during work time now.

I'm also trying to give up using internet auction sites during work time. . . can be hard as I run some auctions for work too, so its always temptign to check your own :) - but hey, Dad's my boss and often we are browsing for items for him during work :)

Well I'm unemployed but it seems work will follow you even when you're not getting paid for it :-? . I signed up for a coach to Edinburgh and somehow became a lot more involved... How does this keep happening to me? Not that I mind great cause and all, just it always seems to be all or nothing, old no buses then 3 come a long at once thingy. So I amworking, just not getting paid for it. So no one can complain can they, :D . Works for me.
