No, and I probably wouldn't even consider it. At work I only use the comp for work-related stuff, and the only sites I visit that aren't company websites are fitness-related websites. Most of the time I'm not even at the comp at work, anyways.

My office has the site blocked. *boo*. Though I don't have any real privacy so that's a barrier too. If I had my own office, I'd totally check in a little from work.

Default Not on Company Computer

Like some of the folks above, I work from home for an IT company. I have a company issued laptop and a personal desktop.

While my company is pretty progressive and gays/lesbians are protected under our diversity policy, we have domestic partner bennies - etc., my personal feeling is that I'd be disrespecting my company doing anything not work related on the equipment they provided for me to work on. Social networking, gaming, etc.

So, instead I have become the Queen of Multitasking between 2 machines at all times...

I have a Droid as well, I tried to enter chat and it said I needed java so I hit the provided link to download it. Got to the java site and hit the free download button and got ... device not supported. So I guess using the Droid to go into the chat room is not an option at this time.

I went online years ago to another B-F site while at work ... I got tagged for it back then and they blocked the website ... what a bunch of fun-preventers! LOL!

Now, they have tightened Internet restrictions even more in the past couple of years. I still get tapped on the head once in a while.

Oh well ....

My work computer is heavily tracked, and the official corporate rules are very strict, but most people appear to have smartphones and if you sit at anybody's desk (including my boss's) for more than 5 minutes, their phone does something communicative - emails, texts or rings.

My boss doesn't actually pick up if we're in there though my last meth-head boss would totally text and talk right in front of us.

I only ever use the internet on my work computer for work-related stuff.

We have productivity goals we have to meet, and I usually meet/exceed them. But I definitely read bfp from my iphone while at work, and I generally post on breaks. If I hear a song I like on Pandora, I will sometimes find the link on youtube and paste it to the listening thread while working. It's a pretty quick maneuver and then it's there for posterity (read: for my own future enjoyment). If they ever make us put our smartphones away, it will be the podcasts I'll miss most.

Sounds like we need to get to work on the iPhone app

I've been studying the app building process for several months. I feel like I'm close to beginning work on it but it has to go in line behind the zillion other projects for the site.

Why can't I just win the damned lottery so I can work for ThePlanet full time instead of the system?!!!! WAAAHHHHHH!!!

Well, for the "hitting the lotto" day dreaming segment, my intention(s) have always been to:

Toss $$$ The Planet's way and to donate a big chunk to the MSPCA which holds a very special place in my heart. I love animals and am currently a sponsor.

Prior to anything above, I'll most likely hide out for a few months and not tell anyone where I am until I get things in order. Well, only a few folks that I "truly" trust will know. I don't want certain people coming out of the woodwork trying to be my friend and shit looking for handouts. So be nice to me and maybe, just maybe I'll give you a little somethin', somethin'...But that's after I interrogate you.

As a rule I generally don't access any networking sites at work, unless there is something very specific I'm trying to follow. I share an office with several folks and my computer screen is visible to others in the room. At this point, however, I will not access BFP from work at all. It means I'm not active much, but I won't go on a site with the word "Fuckery" on every page. Prior to that I was very selective about logging on at work but I would on occasion; now I simply won't.

No, I do not..... our work campus is surveillanced electronically, so I limit my own electronic activities, accordingly. I like to keep the scale of my 'footprint' as small as possible.

I would never use my work computer for anything personal!

Our network is government-related.

I am also just too busy to do anything personal and secondly, I am sure that it has layer upon layer of security.

I would rather not find out for sure!

I don't even answer my personal phone while @ work.

Never from a company computer. Ever. They watch us like hawks....I'm not going to be the one they make an example of. I do however use my iPhone when on breaks, lunch or when waiting for something.
