How many of you go on Progarchives at work ?

I was won,dering how many of you spent time on this site at work, during their pause or instead of working?

It’s my case, cause i’m currently at work.

I have a highly responsible position which makes great demands on my time and intellect, so naturally I log on to Prog Archives at work because nobody's looking over my shoulder.

I was interested at the same question some time ago:

Poll Question: When are you here during your typical day?
Poll Choice Votes Poll Statistics
2 [8.33%]
0 [0.00%]
5 [20.83%]
3 [12.50%]
11 [45.83%]
1 [4.17%]
2 [8.33%]

Only 3 answered at work (or did "no Internet at home" put some people off?). Well, I'm sure one of them. My recent work - in front of PC and old newspapers - is soooo boring that I need Archives to make workdays nicer. But hey, I do my work too!

Actually we have four computers in our lab and only need two to drive the machine that does our tests/experiments , the third one being used for the data collections , leaving the fourth rather alone and unused , just collecting dust. Since this computer looks sad and abandonned , I use it to go on the net (along with my colleague) , we alternate for web applications related to our experiments which is why I am on the Prog Archives site.

Is this not a programation archives site?

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

"Since this computer looks sad and abandonned"

So it's was a kind of pity that make you put it in use again?
That's very generous of you!

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Me too - a majority of the time I'm on here is at my office desk, although usually before 9 am, or during lunchtime.

I'm such a rebel!

Oh yeah, all the time, I'm constantly flipping between work and Prog Archives, waiting to see if some interesting thread is active or someone has given a bad review to an ELP album or something...

I RARELY get on-line at home. I log on in the morning, check out the latest news from the battlefield, log off and get some work done. Then I log on... log off.... log back on.... off again.

It's that place you have to go so that they'll pay you so you can eat and live and not starve and die and putrify on the sidewalk.
