It's a bit slow in here this morning.

It's funny watching the forums slowly kick into life, the other day I was unfortunate enough to have to start work at 8.30am, and the forums were dead. As soon as 9am came along they slowly picked up, until at about 9.30, they were well alive!

I guess that means it takes the averga person 30 mins to start work, so "morning" to everyone, check their email and grab a coffee, ready to start posting for 9.30.

However, today is another story all together. It's 10.27 now, and when I started writitng this, nothing had been posted in chat for the last hour or so.

Quite disturbing I think you'll agree......

It's the slackers morning routine....

9.00 Leave for work.
9.10 Get to work
9.11 apologise to boss again
9.12 make a cup of tea
9.15 check your emails
9.20 load up all relevant applications to make it look like youre working
9.22 log onto net, enter daily competitions, like dailydraw.com, so you might not have to come in tomorrow
9.30 log on to the chatforums.

throughout the day, alt/tab between forums and work-based programs as management wanders past.

4.15 rush 10 minutes of work so it looks like you have domne something
4.30 leave work early claiming a headache
4.40 get home early beating the rush hour traffic
4.41 turn on console
1.30am turn off console

I am starting a new job at the end of this month, so I wont be here for a bit while i calculate how much slacking I can get in in a day....

I'm just wondering where the normal "daytimers" are. It's normally me, wookiee, goatboy, meka and fm, without fail.

But today, no one....
