Homing from Work (or Uni / College)

Post by Going Underground »

So some people are employed on the basis of "working from home" but how many of us do personal things during working hours, using our employers computers, photo copiers, equipment, stationery and most importantly TIME!

Apparently "Homing from Work" is becoming more commonplace, so let's see what our survey says..... :)

Does homing from work apply to procrastination during SDL time at uni?

Well if the internet ever got fixed at work I would check in here more often, sadly I have to wait until I get home, and then use the laptop that work give me.

Too right. However, nobody beats students at procrastination; we do it best.

I would be using work's internet if we had a computer! However the guy on stage door has realised his laptop gets wireless so everyone goes up there to check emails on their lunchbreak.
