Work getting in the way of using MFP!

Do you find that work gets in the way of you using MFP and commenting on other peoples diaries?

A few times I've had to stop using MFP and do some work, which gets really annoying when you are trying to read a really good topic thread!

Anybody else have to suffer with this problem?

    My boss has a horrible habit of walking into my office when I'm on MFP- meaning I have to quickly switch my screen. SO annoying.

    Yes, I do. I kinda think it takes nerve that they want me to do more than just show up! Serious nerve.

    Ditto. My boss tends to walk past every time i go on the interweb. She prob thinks im looking at naughty pictures cause i keep shutting everything off before she reaches my desk. I would prefer that though, if she finds out about MFP she'll prob get IT to block it :-(

    Yes!!! I can so relate! The nerve of people coming into my cubicle and asking me to do "stuff!" I'm busy here on MFP!

    I love the alt+Tab shortcut to quickly change my screen to another window I had open...most don't even see me do it!

    Yes!
    I'm here in the office with 7 more people, and they probably couldn't in their wildest dreams imagine, that I'm doing this instead of 'working'.:bigsmile:
    My job sucks anyway!

    LOL - Yes completely - I ended up just thinking to hell with it & leaving it on all the time, if my boss tells me off so be it but I need to look at all the before/after pics & read all the inspirational stories just to get through the day! :smile:

    It annoys the hell out of me that I have to try and log on with my phone to just get updates but cannot get on a pc to have a proper look...
