I know I am. :wink:

We make hardware for the telecom industry and as many of you might know or have experienced, things are tough. So, without lots of orders work is slow and I have time to post on websites and update the Ghost Images of our computers.

If I wasn't able to browse this at work, I would hardly be on. My work hours can get ridiculous in the sense that it seems like I'm always here. So this keeps me sane while I'm drowining in legal documents...

I take care of all the desktops and laptops for the company. (About 130 users, about 350 computers)

Browsing the web often can look like work for me to. Sometimes I visit users personally, sometimes I use dameware. So sitting at my desk studying isnt unsual. Sometimes I just study non work related websites. :-)

yes, naturally, I'm browsing at work; because I work for a University (the state), and we have nothing to do during the summer. :D I love my job.
