[Closed] Do you lot do any work?

I think it's binners turn to work today?

What is this 'work' of which you speak? I do think I've heard Iain Duncan Smith waffling on about it, but I'm not sure

Yup. I work bloody hard.

Although hiding from the searing heat at the moment.

There are some that seem to be on here 24/7 though.

I thought driving to an office to post in STW was work...?

no, it's not binners.

hora, maybe?

Yes. Crazy constantly rotating shift times though. I last posted on stw from work about five years ago on a spookily quiet night shift.

I try my very best to avoid it. I've heard it can give you all sorts of stress related problems. Best left well alone.

I did some a few weeks ago.

M'onoliday.. 😀

I did a bit, now off for a boozy lunch - craft beer yummy.

I'moff.

Yes of course.....shuffles papers on desk....

I packed up at the end of April, and TBH now I don't know where I ever found the time to go into work 😀

Does 'making it look like I am working' count?

I get paid for turning up somewhere 5 days a week where people work but dont really do any myself. TBH it's a PITA, I'm going to see if I'll still get paid if I dont turn up.

Been out for lunch, but back now

Managed downtime...

off uni for the summer 😀 in other words no 😆

I tried it once but it was rather disagreeable so I retired tot he public sector where i could hide doing nothing and yet still claim to be doing something

What gets me is I work in a performance related job with targets and out of 45 staff I am always in the top 10 !!! WTF do the others do 😯

I'm working... I'm on lunch or having a work break...

I'm proctoring an exam after working my bits off teaching for the previous 3 and a half days. And relax.... before the rush to the airport and flight home

does a sweaty bike ride count ? 😕

lol - that's lazy public sector scum for you.

My vans been written off nearly three weeks ago, so I'm not mobile at the moment, bit of a problem when I'm a mobile locksmith. 🙄

Some on here would say I don't do much work anyway though.

I know deluded doesn't do much either, I've seen him quite a lot recently driving home early or driving with a bike on the roof of his car. I doubt his job includes riding anywhere. 😀

You know how often you have to wait ages in a GPs waiting room.......

DrP

😳

I'm here to make sure that someone else is doing the "work"...

I do some sometimes.

TBH, the days when I knuckle down and do more work are the better days. I enjoy myself more and the day goes quicker.

Bloody STW.

Nah. 33 years of it was enough.

Hell yes! I just spend a lot of time waiting for computers to finish whirring...

[i]I just spend a lot of time waiting for computers to finish whirring[/i]

[whispers]

They only stop whirring when they're switched off.

[/whispers]

my work is all about building strong interpersonal relationships, something i'm famous for doing outstandingly on here. so if anything i'm going above and beyond the call of duty.

(i only post when all my patients are out and about scaring the public)

not this week, last day in job tomorrow, I'm ****ed if I'm doing anything productive

Nah. 33 years of it was enough.

What did you do to get to retire so early? Do you really not have to work at all now?

I'm a 'stay at home dad' so after dropping the little one off at school and having a quick glance at the washing up, I went for a 3 1/2 hour ride. Beats bloody coffee mornings with the other school parents.

Should used some sunblock, though. I'm positively glowing.

saved and will be used against you in a court of argualympia... 🙂

Thursday is the day of the week I'm usually working so I get binners to cover for me.

I'm killing an hour before a meeting ATM

BTW Carol Vorderman has just walked past the pub.

Best. Day's. Work. Ever. Fwap.

I'm killing an hour before a meeting ATM

Given the use of that acronym in another recent thread, Stoner, I'm glad I'm nowhere near that meeting....

At the Harp, by any chance?

MODS someone has mentioned the word w@&k, could you please close this thread down and bar them. 😛

think it's time for a nap.

About to leave one company and join another. The last time I was quite active on here I was in exactly the same position.

Not really at the minute. Just started a new job and in the quieter of the 3 studio galleries I have managed to watch all the footy this week and have a chat with the other people I'm in there with. With a bit of work inbetween. I love my new job.

Really.
Infuriating, eh?

Not really, fair play to you. I quite like my job anyway. 🙂

You never answered my other question though....

Indeed they would - you're in the enviable position of being a kept-man, albeit it’s had an emasculating effect and shrunken your balls to the size of apple pips 😀

I’m never not at work - my spidey senses are almost always tingling, prompting me into action to fight the forces of evil and social injustice.

ATM at work? Blimey! Are you a fluffer? 😯

Carol vorderman and ATM on the same thread? Who the hell needs a fluffed?

Well, is it any surprise that this Country is in the sh**e state it's in with all you people "bunking off" to have fun...? 🙄

Retired.

Judging by the answers I suspect most of you work for me! 😯

I work my ass off, but in a largely futile and ineffective way just now so I suppose I might as well not.

aaah yes.. that's me that is.. 😳

just ask the computer to run an SQL query and sit back for half hour while it figures out what i am on about.

I work to Live not live to work, so when I am not visiting clients I work from home and dip in and out of STW during the day either on my laptop or smart phone. However if I'm very busy then I browse in the evening.

I'm glad none of you work for me. If you did monitoring software would watch your every move, followed by a P45 & goodbye. mwahahahaha

Exactly why I'm self employed and not working for to$$ers like you! I dance to my own tune 😆

Me to, well I work for the council, so it's the same thing really.
