How much time do you spend here when you should be working?

I spend about 80% of my work day here, 5% on Facebook (so my family knows I'm alive, cuz screw phones and all that), and the other 15% doing actual work.

    If I'm not traveling for work it's about 80% of my work day. If I am traveling for work, it's probably less than 10%.

    I work from home anyway and usually go for a run or to boxing during lunch.

    I also have no social life. At all.

    I keep it minimized. So, I might pop in to post something really fast or (when I'm not too busy to be a not crappy friend) I'll scroll through to pat everyone on the back. But, the main reason you don't see me in the forums is that about 70% of the time I really am working. lol

    Right, because they would have no other way to figure it out.

    +1

    The exception is when it's quarter end - then I'd say I do, maybe 30 minutes of actual work.

    It varies. Some days I'm on here all day long, some days much less. But my job involves quite a bit of waiting for programs to run so technically I am playing and working.

    I waste way too much time. Fortunately I own the company, so I can't get in trouble :)

    That sounds about right, 80% during the week, but 0% on the weekends. I work way more at home that at work!

    I'm a full time student and mom, so in class or events with my kids, logging on isn't an option. That's a good thing, I'm easily distracted and would spend too much time between here and Facebook. Sitting down to study though, that's another story. Right now, my Muscle Testing and PT Procedures books are next to me, open, waiting for me to finish this post. But, this won't be my last post, and the books will still be open and waiting for another half hour...

    On a typical day maybe only 5-10%. My job demands most of my time.

    But on days like today when work is really slow and I dont feel like doing anything because everyones on Spring Break, I may be bumping that percentage up closer to 25%.

    Our computer networks and servers are so slow. It takes forever to get anything done, so I will jump in and throw a few comments out while waiting for things to load. So, it's multi-tasking, and hard to really quantify.

    This...when you sit at a computer all day, it's hard not to be on here. I keep it running in my background.
