Philosophy!

So here is the point that I am thinking about; why do I waste so much time at work watching the forums?
Is there something compelling me to be here? Do I enjoy the sense of comradeship? Am I bored? Am I looking for arguments to laugh at?

The answer to all of that is: "probably".

What do you all do for work? By the looks of it you waste as much time as me.

I read this forum, listen to the TGS podcast once a week, watch totalbiscuit and jessie cox play terraria, watch dexterity bonus, read half the cheezburger network sites, poke fb, and then occasionally make my boss ****loads of money for very little reward hence the total dedication and effort demonstrated....

Hahaha! Bravo good sir!

As long as it keeps us in work ey?

[Psychosplodge]

Yes, just that much and no more,
you're not thought any better for actually putting the effort in...

This is true, unfortunately.

In my family we don't 'work', we sometimes deign to accept money in return for doing things we wanted to do anyway. I am on a museums payroll in a very, very junior position where I catalogue things, move boxes around and flirt with wealthy potential donors at fundraisers. I'm supposed to help look after the small collection of classical antiquities but thanks to understaffing I end up doing lots more things. I'm very good at my job, I move those boxes and catalogue stuff like nobodies business. The male senior staff want to promote me and the female senior staff want to fire me and thanks to budget constraints in the current financial climate I only get called in for half a dozen hours a week anyway.

The rest of the week is spent hitting my brothers with swords and daggers, eating, hanging around BoLs while painting, reading and playing video games.

Maybe I should show up to these events! xD

I wish I didn't have to work 10 hours a day, it's such a f'ing drag. I feel so old because I'm tired all of the time.

This is exactly my day. Literally exactly. Except i don't watch Dodger, and watch the Yogscast instead.

And instead of making money is do research in nano-bio tribology and play with cow blood...

That's quite scary....
