Talking Ok - CC'ers who is guilty of visiting the boards during work?

When I have a few down minutes, I find myself pulling up the boards during work anyone else want to fess up? The boards are a fun diversion sometimes to a long boring day at work!?

Default I confess:

I visit the boards during work (mostly at lunch, but occassionally otherwise).
I have a photo of my upcoming cruise cabin on my desk.
Part of my screensaver is a countdown clock to my upcoming cruise.

If I didn't check them at work, then I'd never get to check them. I'm always at work.

I can't. We have some blocked sites, usually dependent on advertising and other blocked items, so I can't see it at all.

I am a travel agent so it is considered research time. Just like the time spent reading travel magazines and cruise brochures.

All the time, every day. Here and a lot more sites. As long as I get my work done, the boss doesn't care. Plus, I do a ton of OT!

Happily I don't work, and my wife will agree.

I can't , we don't have computer access at work. Well, we do have computers in our classroom, but the teachers computer is off limits and the kids computers have, well, kid stuff and no internet connection.

I have to check in before and after work.

Used to be able too, but recently became a blocked site.
Oh well, gives me something to look forward to on the way home.

Later

Only during lunch--I just wouldn't be comfortable doing it any other time--but that's just me.

I'm blocked at work- but I would if I could! Luckily, as a rehired retired I only work a couple-three days a week, so there is lots of time to browse CC from home. Like now, when I should be cleaning my house!
