PhillyKev 0 #1 June 24, 2003 Ok....I set a goal for myself and met it. I successfully post whored for the entire 10 hours I've been at work today (minus lunch). I did absolutely nothing whatsoever at work. I feel dirty...dirty like a whore. Plus I'll just have to work my friggin' ass off tomorrow. So you'll be getting an (I'm sure) welcome respite from my opinionated, loud mouth tomorrow. g'night Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TitaniumLegs 8 #3 June 24, 2003 Hard working post-whore techniques... 1. Conference calls. As long as you're not the moderator or a major contributer, you can be in attendance and therefore "working", but with the phone on mute, they don't heard the frantic keyboard. 2. Bursts of activity. You ned to use the can. Jump up out of your chair, grab a clipboard or a stuffed file folder and walk briskly down the hall with an intent/angry look. Do not take the shortest route to the bathroom. In fact, don't even pick the clostest bathroom. 3. Have other windows/browsers open you can switch to in case anybody comes by that might bust you. 4. Forward any work-related email that you aren't really involved with to somebody else who you know is already handling it with the preamble "Have you seen this yet?" or "FYI". Be careful with this - you could end up with the action to take care of it. 5. Take your laptop into a conference room, with the screen facing away from the door/public. Spread random files or papers or even tech manuals around the table. Dial in to somebosy else's conference call with the phone on mute so you can be "on a call" and not even involved. 6. If your company network supports it and it's a nice day, take your laptop outside with a collection of papers and/or manuals. When people ask, you're just trying to get some work done without having to deal with the phone. 7. Call friends, ideally dz.commies, who work in the same industry and talk tech while you're *both* post-whoring. I'm not a post-whore yet, but I intend to use the above techniques to boost my status.

Shotgun 1 #4 June 24, 2003 I feel so used.... knowing the only reason you responded to my post was because you were trying to post-whore.... oh well, guess I'll go back to believing the world is an ugly and desolate place ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PurpleBadger 0 #6 June 25, 2003 The time i'm making most posts, is in the 12 hours before an exam... the time that i specifically set aside to complete the work for courses that I have been 'working on' the whole year... how about some advice for people who don't work in an office all day long Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #7 June 25, 2003 1. You need a fast connection 2. You need the ability to type fast. I type consistantly around 90 words a minute. 3. You have to not give a shit about minor spelling mistakes. --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sunshine 2 #13 June 25, 2003 Actually i got addicted to pogo.com playing Sweet Tooth. That game is pure evil. After playing it for 4 hours, i moved onto Battleship. Then i did some experiments with candle wax and canned air. So even though i wasn't post whoring, i wasn't working either. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug!
