    Me!

    I have a big private office too!

    As soon as I hear footsteps, bam, my windows closes lol :devil:

    Me too. Then I open porn to throw them off the scent.

    So, how many people are currently at work "getting paid" to play on this site?

    Also, who hides this window when they hear footsteps?

    Hahaha.

    This would be me, lol. Just waiting for them to block the site as I know IT checks.

    I am but I do not need to minimize it because my back is against a wall and you can't see my screen unless you walk towards me to stand next to me. So I am safe. I actually have tons of work to do just not in the mood to do what I am paid for.

    Agreed. I'm looking at a stack of paperwork that just pisses me off. So this helps me to ignore it.

    Fortunately I have a a cubicle in a far corner of my floor so nobody can see the computer screen. But otherwise I'm jumping between screen MFP and my work screen.

    When they do, call me. We'll sue them for discrimination, er something.

    Me, but I'm kinda like my own mini boss, so it doesn't matter. I make the rules, I can break them. Just have to watch that the Big Boss doesn't find out! haha.

    Killin time waiting for 5pm to arrive....long, slow, tediously boring day.

    If by work you mean ignore housework...

    And if by busy you mean letting my kids fight it out for a change while I finish my coffee in peace...

    ...then yes.

    I come to work just so I can talk to all my MFP "Pals". Why else would I be here?

    Me & me.... I'm usually in the back office so it doesn't matter if I hear footsteps they can't see my computer.... but today I'm at the front desk however I"m facing my boss so it's a bit easier.

    Hahaha.

    That would be me on both counts! We're super quiet at work right now; I'm a writing tutor for my university's Writing Center but as there aren't many students on campus we have barely any appointments scheduled. We have to stay open to serve the summer classes, graduate students, and faculty, though. So, I'm sat on the fifth floor of our lovely library, overlooking a big patch of green, sipping a non-fat chai latte and supposedly working on my thesis. Instead, I'm playing around on MFP and wishing it was hometime so I could head for the pool and a good swim.

    ME! I work in a chem lab, and I hop on here all the time while I am waiting for samples to finish running, or the spectrograph to initialize, etc. My boss doesn't care if I am on the internet and is rarely even back here, but I always minimize this window when I hear footsteps, lol. I was in a desk job in the front office for five years before I came back here, and we were "strongly discouraged" from getting on the internet. Old habits die hard. :bigsmile:

    Oh yes I just love it. Usually I don't look busy but being on this site (which is addictive) makes me looks like I am working LOL
