My boss apparently doesn't care as long as I get my work done on time. So far it hasn't been a problem.

Also, I have caught my boss doing a lot worse, so I don't even worry about it. Get a couple martinis in the guy...

Yeah, that's all good for you, Pathman, but what do I tell my boss when I get calls on my cell phone and you can hear the guy on the other end screaming in jubilation?

How do you feel about moving the product from JSP to PHP?

Seriously though, they don't care as long as I make my deadlines and my work is accurate.

The white background saves my bacon...and the use of hot-keys.
But if i do get caught, I'll tell them i'm waiting for a rate, or customer to call back.

My boss couldn't care less as I work on a job deadline type of basis with flexible hours and some work at home...did I mention that I hate being on call for trouble shooting!!!

I can use the PC at lunch each day when I come home.

bacpac, you're a tight-ass. Take it as a compliment.

The only thing funny about you GS is that we can't figure out if you're a man or a woman (or maybe an 'it'- was there a freak accident?) and that wasn't even your doing. So you are pretty much worthless on TT IMO. At least the other trolls are funny (sometimes) (no offense bacpac).

Hey bacpac would it bother you if I told you I waste about 65% of my companys time everyday for the last 11 years!

And don't get in trouble for it!

I don't work on a clock. I work till the work is done.

I like to make people smile, sorry if that offends you. There's a lot of great people to meet on TT (I get email from a bunch). Sometimes my comments/questions are sincere, sometimes they're B.S. If you can't tell the difference maybe you are taking it a bit too seriously?

Oh well, I don't really care. Normally I just ignore people like you. I don't really expect you to stop riding my as$, you're probably a psychotic anyway.

Pathman, the work is never done. Creative people find things to do. If you don't enjoy your work find something else to do.

I do some of my best work at home.

Bacpac, you wear BDU's to the supermarket, don't you? C'mon, it's cool, just admit it. We can help you relax...
Phaedrus

You are right bacpac, the assigned work gets done during work hours, the "above and beyond" gets done whenever. I still don't work on a clock.

And you are right, creative people always find things to do.

BTW-I like what I do and I like it better when I take TT breaks. :D

I do not think I will get caught. Wait.. there is no one to catch me... Hmmm, now the people who work for me... If I caught them. I would not do too much... Well, I certainly would demand an explanation. Just to make them sweat.

Not me, man, I figure the more time I waste at work, the higher my actual hourly pay rate is.

Of course, I can do that now, cause I am no one's boss. It's different on the other side of the fence :)
Phaedrus

And by the way, I never get caught. My boss doesn't understand what I do, and therefore never bothers looking at what I'm doing.

Shouldn't people on salary be more diligent?
Pathman that is a cop-out. I draw a salary too. I assign myself my own work. From 7:00 to 12:00 and 1:00 to 4:00, I will not allow myself TT time. I have deleted all of the time wasting Windows games from my computer too.

If I have overtime or weekend projects (no compensation of course) , I relax and occasionally surf. Beyond that I am kidding myself and so are you.

Tears for what? I'm only sad because you ran off some of my favorite TTers. A little bit immature, don't you think?

LOL.
bacpac this seems to be a recurring theme between the two of us, and I don't see how or why I should justify myself to you, but let me try and get you to understand.

I outperform anybody I work with, and part of it is that I "play". I play all the time. I am creative. I use my time creatively. I look for projects creatively. I do things that are in somebody elses job description because it needs to be done and they aren't doing it. I do things nobody I work with has thought of, including use of the internet. How did I learn about the internet? You got it. Playing.

There is nobody at work complainig about how I use my time. They just want me to do more of what I am already doing. :D

Too bad you don't have an email address. Maybe you would actually make some friends here.
