I just pop over here and take 30 seconds to fill out a survey or two, when I want a quick break from work. Now I shall go _back_ to work. |

I usually use SC at work, where I frequently have a spare minute or two. Hence, I am usually caught up on voting but not on commenting. |

My homework, what else? |

There's nothing specific I should be doing--but I certainly shouldn't be doing this. |

Almost all of the options involved some form of fairly justifiable rationalization. Personally, I need an option more like: "There is specific work that I should be doing right now, but I am filling out surveys instead because I am a lazy, undisciplined, unfocused, unmotivated person, and SC is a wonderful form of procrastination."  |

The timing (and questions) of this survey is excellent, I just took time off from work to answer a fairly long personal email. I didn't think then that "I should be doing work now," but after I sent off the email and popped over to my web browser that already had SC running I had a twinge of guilt as I clicked on this question, instead of getting back to work. Lately I've been trying to come to a better understanding as well as implementation of the priorities in my life, so I won't think in terms of "I should" and "I should not", but instead "I am/will" and "I am not/won't". |

I agree completely with what Antony said. |

I just do whatever I feel like doing. I mix work with fooling around. I have phases where my brain is really good at work and I usually do work in those phases. Then I also have phases where I'm not so good about doing work, so I fool around. So far, no one has questioned me. I hope they look at the bottom line, what I produce in the end... that's what matters. |

For me, SC is something I do at work; it is a very effective procrastination tool. |

I just spent all day doing stuff I "should" do. Now it's time to do things I want to do. |

If I share my thoughts on the matter I can't do "just one more survey and I'm back to what I should be doing"... And yes, I think I can quit any time I want...  |

Since I do this in my leisure time at home, I don't usually feel there's anything more pressing that requires my attention, although there are days when I get behind on my share of the housework! I had considered doing a survey on how many people connect to SC from work. I had the day off today and the connection seemed slower during the daytime...I thought it might have been due to a lot of people visiting here at once, although I suppose the bottleneck could have been elsewhere. |

I am at home....free time...play play play.... |
| mandy | | posted 14-May-1999 12:32am |
I wish I could do this at work...but I have to work...at work.....:( Do you people who use SC from work ever get in trouble for playing on work time or are you all luckily happily self employed or doing SC on break time? I am curious? |

At my work, the managers don't dog us at well. They just assume we'll do our work, and we do. They don't care how we do it. I guess they don't get into the micro-manage thing. It's nice, but on the other hand sometimes I wish they'd give me a little more direction. |

when I had a job, it was initially a matter of flipping windows when people walked by.. partly because my immediate supervisor was a goober, and related supervisors were pinheads. then I moved departments and the supervisor there had a clue, as long as the work was all caught up on, then it wasn't an issue. This was my view at the other position as well. Now that I am out of work, I don't have to worry about that. however, I do have to take time from my busy schedule of loafing around the house to go online and do surveys.. only 300 or so to catch up on. |

I'm waiting for the kids(teens) to get ready for church tonight. Then I'll come back and do more surveys until time to pick them up. I am a

I have many other things I should be doing right now and if I keep this up I may be in big trouble but I am addicted to SC!!! |

I should be putting my groceries, but i need to relax after bicyling with $160 18 bags almost, all heavy staples. I got to spend a while with my favorite clerk, smoking cigarettes and exchanging life stories, under the guise of her helping me take my groceries out to the bike. |
| Jasmine | | posted 11-Aug-1999 1:11am |
Just this one survey took me 15 minutes. i've really got to get over this addiction because it is not my priority by any means. |

I'm doing surveys while waiting for my laundry to finish drying. I'm doing three loads of laundry. |
