So where are when you TFP? - Page 3 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

hunnychile · 07-13-2005, 06:49 PM

Well, I visit whenever I feel like I need a relaxing break. At work or at home. I'm lucky that I have tons of freedom on the job (management privlages, I guesss) and I find TFP a nice break from selling freakin' diodes, arrestors, relays and wireless antennas.

Places that monitor EEs "too much" really suck the big haji IMO.

I sneak an occasional peak on the TFP from work but it's rare. We have way too many people spending way too much time snooping on productivity including what i-net sites you visit. So... I TFP mainly from the homestead. From my primary client's location tfp is definitely a banned / blocked site. I've not gone anywhere from their network but cnn.com and the like. Their blocking softare throws up a monkey shaking his head saying that "your ip & mac address have been recorded as attempting to access a site that is inappropriate for business use". In other words... don't keep trying this or you'll be fired. In fact you may already be fired but we're too lazy to really determine who you are so this web site blocker page we hope is enough to scrare the shit out of you.

It works at least in my case.

work, no internet at home.

roachboy · 07-14-2005, 09:04 AM

in between tasks, mostly in the morning.
this summer, i am mostly writing and dealing with logistical stuff, so mornings last longer than they do during the school year.
once in a while from the library computers, if i am interested in how a particular thread is going.

raeanna74 · 07-14-2005, 02:16 PM

At home. I work from home. I can do anything I want as long as my responsibilities are fulfilled.

Previously in another generation of TFP I posted from home only and though I had access to computers at work I did not post there. Reason - They had any sites with nudity blocked and should you manage to get around that you'd get fired the minute the discovered it. They monitored people too. Not too long after I left there were a number of professors/staff who were 'asked' to leave when it was discovered they had visited some of the taboo kind of sites. It sucks.

gilbert- · 07-21-2005, 02:57 AM

I work in a retail outlet, so there's no access for me to browse the internet for my leisure so I TFP when I arrive home after work during the evenings, it's pleasant to be able to relax on here.

canuckguy · 07-21-2005, 04:32 AM

I am lucky enough to switch positions with the wife for a bit so I am a stay at home dad. I usually pop in whenever I can, the little one keeps me jumping so visits are usually short and very erratic. Have a laptop so its easy to keep it open and pop in and out.

odu_sonar_AE · 07-21-2005, 04:33 AM

I got on here @ work, and sometimes @ home.

When I get on @ work, I'm usually at a point where I need to focus on something else for a quick moment before I go back to what I'm working on (I'm an engineer).

optik_nerve · 07-21-2005, 10:52 AM

I'm usually all over the house (Couch, dining room, lanai, the can

) or at class.
