I'm just curious about how much time people spend on SJ when they're at work. I'm logged in pretty much the entire time I'm here. Especially on nights like tonight where I'm designing the section and waiting for stories to move I refresh the main page here to see what new threads have started or new posts on old threads.
 
I used to check it while I was at work, but I didn't spend a lot of time in the office. I was usually out at car accident scenes or researching a fairly big story I wrote for my paper.
 
I check in, sometimes without logging in, just to see because it happens pretty often that news hits here before I see it on the wire.
 
I find myself looking for funny things to read like "turning down a romp in the hay" .... if you haven't read it take the time to read all 53 pages because it's hilarious .... or like you said imjustagirl to see if news is here before it hits the wire
 
I don't work (except for occassional nights like tonight), but I post from school more than I should.
 
I used to log in here every day from work. I spent WAY too much time on here when I should have been doing something productive.

Now I log on from class when the lecture is dull.

Once again... PLEASE keep this thread on topic... I will not ask nicely again.

Am I missing something here? All I know is about 10 posts have been deleted in the last five minutes. What's the deal? It was an honest question.
 
There was a spat between two members. It has been resolved and does not need to be discussed further. Carry on.
 
You don't want to know melock. I promise.

We have dial-up where I'm working now, probably to keep the employees off the internet as much as possible, so I doubt I'll be spending time on here at work. Not that I really have any time to spend with the job I'll probably be doing.
 
Rarely if ever visit and I NEVER post at work.
Some corporate spy is watching, I know it.
Why give the hangman the rope?
Plus, I'm there to, ahem, work?
 
I visit at work, and I might post on college football Saturdays or NFL Sundays. Otherwise, not much at work. Most posts come before and after work.
