View Full Version : Is this a bludgers board?
Seems to me that 90% or more posts on this board are on weekdays which may well mean that people are using their PC at work / uni instead of working. Admit it here if you are a bludger :)

Although I do have access to post at work I haven't yet.....
I post from work, but only after I have finished my work & we are having a slack period, my boss knows & doesn't have a problem with it, because he knows I do my job well & when I take a 2 weeks holiday, I come back to 2 weeks work that has built up because he doesn't employ someone to do my work while I am away.
So no I am not a bludger, my boss gets a great return for what he pays me.

Not guilty your honour.
I post at home, and very occasionally from school. If at school, it's always in a spare period.

Up until a couple of months ago the only option I had was to post from work, but since then I have bought a computer for home.
Am I a bludger? Well, I am a public servant and most people reckon it's the same thing.:) :p

Where I work either something very big is happening, or absolutely nothing at all. When there is a job, we are all very busy. Most of the time nothing much is going on and we aren't expected to do anything.
We have a full kitchen, a very big screen projection TV, a DVD player, VCR and full cable package. There are four computers for no other reason but for us to surf and e-mail without tying up the 10 other "official" computers.
So like Bee, yes I'm a "bludger" but a proper one. :D

I post at work so that I have something vaguely interesting to think about while doing truly dull work.

Do people use their own time for these boards???????/
WOW
That's an amazing concept.
If I ever do that - please kill me.

Posting on bigfooty is one of the more constructive forms of Internet bludging around. Having said that I do what you said. Just waiting for the government to get 'tough' on us.
PS this particular post is on my day off.

Bludging, most of the time. Away from work I have more important things to do!

Considering i work in the computing department it doesnt matter where i go on the internet

Using my lady's comp at the moment, does that count me as a bludger?
:D
All hail, King of Bludgers! I'm a council worker (I know, I know) and I'm usually in the call centre, so between calls I get on here and yak. :cool:

I work for de goverment department of social services.
Bludger!
I have exceeded my budget for the year at work, thus I can justify a few minutes per hour on BigFooty.
Better than a ciggie break, because I don't smell bad after I post on BF, unless I am conversing with a Carlton supporter! ;)
Work hard, play hard.
I have no choice but to post on Bigfooty on my own time, considering I look after kids there are no opportunities to post. Or even be near a computer.

I post at work and at home - probably more at work.
However, that doesn't make me a bludger - it makes me a flexible worker who puts in extra when the client needs it and does something constructive (posting on BF) when the heat is off.
