We only have intranet at work unless your one of the managers and you have full access to the internet so I use my mobile and created my own TMF app for instant access. I could use tapatalk but i'm too tight to pay for the app lol.

Student. We work 24 hours a day 7 days a week for 2 weeks of the year. Other 50 are free. At times you may notice that I haven't been online for e few days. That is usually when deadlines are approaching.

Currently on tmf while eating breakfast

i run a fire truck maint shop, mostly were here as standby in case a fire truck breaks down and or when the fire men do there daily checks and they find something wrong, my shop has to repair them asap, so nothing broke, no work, so i surf the net or take care of whatever needs be

my last job, i ran a refueling maints shop, working on air craft refueling trucks, i didn't have any work till after lunch and thats if anything broke down that day,

my job isn't always like this, it goes slow for a few weeks at a time and then everything hits the fan and i'll have 3-4 trucks go down at ones and that makes a very very long day for me

I've dont that too. And now that they have the mobile version, it is a decent little App.

And besides, this place is miles better than FB, which is just full of absolute pish most days. I discover when people wake up, that they feel sad because they have run out of sodding coco pops or they are going to bed. The number of people on my friends list who are rather needy and post anywhere between 6 and 10 times a day is quite shocking really. Unless you have a funny joke, an observation or hope about football or are doing something really interesting, I'm not interested. So I come here instead.

So, as I thought then really..... you're all basically just a bunch of slackers!!!! :P

.... now if you don't mind, I must get back to being paid to do very little for a living and neglecting to look after my children!! :lol:

People need to spend more time in the garage, and practice what they preach.

Agreed!!... and I'd certainly like to, but my employer never seem too happy about me stripping my car down on their premises (although admittedly that hasn't stopped me in the past!! ;D )... I've also tried working on my mini whilst looking after too small children at the time and that's never particularly successful either. :(

I doubt security will let me bring my Mini into the office to work on.

I've asked for one of those Mini desks for my new office, when our new building is fitted out ... :gimme:

Doubt I'll get it, though :(



I work in IT & Marketing, but tend to spend my time at work actually working! :ermm:
