I'm actually so effective at work that no one ever catches me on the job.

(Oct 24 07, 10:51)ok seriously - it does happen to me. thing is software development (i do databases and info design) has allowed me to concentrate in a few hours of the day what was once a very stressed work day.
Since I'm not getting more pay for my merit I'm also not improving any longer. Which makes it the time to move on elsewhere - when i have the chance.

I'm adding some games to my 2008 dept. request-sheet. I'm willing to trade that for HR training hours. probably cheaper for the company and my motivation will be greatly improved.

Take a screen cap of PS while the status bar is up.
Make said screen cap your desktop and go for a 2hr lunch.

Exactly, just take a screenshot of all your work open. Post this into a desktop that doesn't have any icons on it (as this will be too obvious), or just paste it into a program with a minimal interface (like just one, thin bar at the top and one at the bottom) to make it look as much like your desktop as possible.

I actually told my boss I had a lot of time in my hands once. He said, "well, good for you then. You're swift."
Actually it isn't good for me. He knows he would have to pay me more if I was given other jobs. So, since I came out on the open, I presently don't feel wrong using my spare time for personal stuff. For the company's side it's good too. I actually solve other depts. problems when I have spare time. Good for both.
In biology our relation is called altruism: like the shark and the pilot-fish.
