I say work, but work for me can be quite a loosely defined thing. Could be a translation at home on the pc. Also, some Saturdays I have to be at work supervising and I am not paid for it. They wouldn't begrudge me a little spread.
What annoys me most is that those who smoke get no end of 5 minute breaks to nip down to the street and puff away. I don't know what it's like elsewhere but here when I walk down the street I see crowds of people outside office blocks all puffing away and chatting. I think of all their penalised non-smoking workmates upstairs.
Think of my harmless little spread as the equivalent of a cigarette break.
The sites I like so far are the Alchemical & Greenwood (have I already said that?). I have to say some of these sites I'm looking at are not at all user-friendly. I'm rather amazed at how user unfriendly they actually are.
I want something where the page comes up, click to shuffle and it's done.
I give a site less than 10 seconds to make sense to me then I click the little red cross.
But they should have to fit it into the coffee breaks non-smokers get. i.e. instead not as well.
I was just saying - as there are people, here even, who seem to think it unreasonable if their employers mind them surfing at work !
