As I made my last posting I noticed the times of other regular postees - if that's the right word and I realised how the same people including me seem to spend an awful lot of time on the Forum when they should be earning an honest crust.
It got me wondering how people fit their visits into their work/leisure schedules?
I try and fit it in between rush to do all the other things I have to do and this is why on some theads they have finished before I have read/posted on them.
I work in a small village popularly dubbed as 'an open prison' so there's nothing to do at lunchtime - hence the fact I usually lunch at my desk and surf the web. It's that or cowtipping.
My computer is on whenever I'm awake, and SF gets its own browser window. I check in often to stay on top of the postings. Right now, I'm off work on short term disability so my online hours are a bit extended.
I better answer my own question. I have a very irregular work pattern and can be around very early in the morning, late at night, just in the morning or just the afternoon and I have SF as a favourite at work as well so I tend to dip into it quite frequently and at almost anytime of day or night.
Work is fairly stressful so I find it a great way to unwind, I particularly enjoy the very friendly atmosphere here which is certainly not universal when viewing other message boards.
Just an old, retired from real work, phart here, that works a lot on the computer and at the slot car bench when I don't have some piddely chore around the house.
"Dang it, that grass is growing again"
I may have to go out a mow it soon or I won't be able to see the dog.
Regional service manager of a national leisure company ,my excuse is research into peoples leisure habits and whether we can get coin slots back into slot racing
I'm also on long term sick leave, and having to start training for another career. I was a taxi driver, maybe I'll have to change my user name when I start my next job?
...you've showed your age howmet - only elder people like us remember Alice Cooper and his scandals
I'm working as head of logistics for the swiss subsidiary of a UK-based reseller. And for my excuse - I'm working a lot and drop into SF from time to time to relax...
I get paid regularly by the company, but not sure it could be described as work. It's a pain, frustrating and annoying, but work....?
No, I get paid to talk about cars to other car nuts. Leaving aside the need to talk to accountants about how much money I spend talking about cars to other car nuts, it's the best job in the world (although I sometimes forget that).
