Same here. When I'm not chatting with PerfectDark on IM, I'm posting on swf.com.

"I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work. "

Just curious: Are any of you guys at work now? Do you post at work?
Yeppers. The truth of the matter is I am a forum addict. Some days I just have to keep my browser closed to get anything done.

Same here.
You see Bob, it's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care. It's a problem of motivation, all right? Now if I work my a s s off and Initech ships a few extra units, I don't see another dime, so where's the motivation? And here's another thing, I have eight different bosses right now. Eight, Bob. So that means when I make a mistake, I have eight different people coming by to tell me about it. That's my only real motivation is not to be hassled, that, and the fear of losing my job. But you know, Bob, that will only make someone work just hard enough not to get fired.
"And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were married... But then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll, I'll, I'll set the building on fire..."

I hear it all the time. Insurance is the most hated industry ever. Everyone hates it until their house burns down.
Do the math. They do.
Then they turn around and invest the money untill they have to pay out. Seriously those lords of london guys are friggen business geniuses.

IT and Facilities Manager for a company that makes parts for elevators. Chances are all of you have seen some of our work if you've ever been in an elevator. We make the button panels for choosing the floor you want, the buttons that go on the wall outside the elevator, the door edges that keep them from closing on you and emergency communication systems for when you get stuck in them!

I am semi-retired but build PC's and was doing contract work for gaming companies.. I build and sell water cooled machines online. Aquarium computers where we build and drop the PC into aquarium. I do not do much anymore though tbh. I do a lot of charity work though.

Off topic: Fats, you have been attacking me incessently for posting at work, calling me really mean stuff. But, you let these guys slide?
On topic: I am a VS model. I would link to my stuff, but linking is frowned on. You'll have to go to the VS site to see me at work......
