I'm pretty nifty with the alt-tab key combo too. First sound of footfalls, and swift as a flash they're off.

Ta for that excellent (and about six months late!!!!) advice.

the way my life has gone since, I can safely say it's the best thing that could have happened to me.

Since then I (excuse me, my brother and I) have won two contracts from a local angling club to "re-furbish" one pond and dig one from scratch, part funded by the Environment Agency and a big Chemicals firm.

Either way I have spent the entire summer outside,got a cracking tan, got fit (and knackered it must be said!) broken my carp record twice and am earning more than I did before.

And best of all I have gone from an almost exclusively female dominated, office environment to a completely male, outdoor one - much more laid back, more fun and I can now use the phrase "did you see the fight at the weekend?" and actually expect an answer!

Hard to see the cloud for all the silver lining to be honest!

Then you can read away without any a) logging by big-brother and b) if someone looks at your monitor, they don't see anything wrong.

Professional work avoidance.

Pure Genius

Work hard, get employed, become a manager, then u can do sweet FA all day except looking at boxing websites.

Yeah, I'm gonna go on at night for an hour. I spend too much time on here in the day.

Gross Misconduct relating to a total of 80 hours (working hours i might add!) spent viewing boxing sites - not bad going when you considered they only monitored a one month period and I only worked 35 hours a week.

Positives include - three months suspension on full pay (allowing me time and wedge to set up new business!) and having a new job.

Negatives include - not having regular access to the net & wife's face when I put any boxing on TV.

Thought I'd post this for a couple of reasons:

1. As a warning to all other (former in my case) desk-bound types.

2. So you can all have a fornicating good laugh!

I have been barred from accessing boxing forums from my work account. Probably for the best to be honest as I was getting little work done, but it means my access to these sites is infrequent.
I am posting this response from holiday in Ibiza. Don´t worry lads I will have a few looseners for you all tonight; no work for a week and it feels good!!

TT. Have a good holiday and come back refreshed, Here there's a card at Dudley on the 10th. Might come up and meet you there

Sounds good Kev - we could meet up for a few drinks and watch the fights: I am sure that Bennie will be lurking somewhere around Dudley Town Hall too - chance for a few bevs!
