mr2mk1g 10 #1 October 30, 2003 Personally, I make liberal use of their franked mail and envelopes. Of course I always use my office phone for personal calls. I write most of my personal letters on work time, on work paper, using the work printer, and do all of my photocopying here. I try to do most of my dumps at work whilst of course making good use of the excellent Poo-Timer you can find on line. Finally, and probably most detrimentally, I Post-Whore on here all day long. Ok, so I’m blatantly not the worst abuser... to that end I was just wondering just who is the worst abuser of work time and money? What do you lot get for free curtsey of an unknowing boss?

nacmacfeegle 0 #2 October 30, 2003 My boss recently announced that he didn't want to know how I filled my days, as long as I kept on 'delivering what the client wants' Post whoring is a right, not an abuse of trust in my opinion..... Downloading loads of vid via a fast internet connection, then burning it to CD on works time is one major perk. I cut my hair on work time, cos it grows on work time! I eat on work time, cos I get hungry on work time! etc.....-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

mikemc 0 #3 October 30, 2003 Shit you have just described my day. Not forgetting making as many cups of tea/coffee as I can consume. If it all gets too much I hide in the warehouse and take a nap. Need a nap after a big lunch and a couple of pints!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sunshine 2 #5 October 30, 2003 You should be ashamed. I would never even think about wasting my work time post whoring, using the copier, making personal calls, shopping, playing online games, etc.... ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug!

jfields 0 #8 October 30, 2003 I don't smoke, so I don't cost the company "smoke breaks". Plus I don't spend half my day hacking up my lungs in fits that resemble seizures and leave me unable to type. So I figure my postwhoring, copying, and e-mail is actually saving the company money over them hiring a smoker, or my picking up the habit, which would be within my rights. And that is just one example. If I have to, I can show a ROI for myself that will prove how I singlehandedly contribute the vast majority of our company's earnings.
