Default Which kind of poster are you...?

I was curious as to how, throughout a workday, this site manages to accrue so many posts. Feel free to expand on your choice in the poll above.

Yep, I work for a University and so have a private office with outstanding Internet speed. Throughout the day I need to take some time away from work in order to recharge, so I usually skim through my favourite forums/news sites. I suppose I should get up from my desk and stretch my legs, but that would be healthy

I am a stay-at-home father with a 2-year-old and newborn. Sometimes I get a moment or two throughout the day; but it really depends on how my girls are feeling at the moment.

I'm an intermittently employed (temp library work and contract editing work) house husband, and I sort of half live on the Web during the day.

I'm a lurker!

Or a 4-color poster hiding under sepia tones.

I post when I think have something add to a topic. Which isn't all that often.

I put I have too much free time but that not really accurate. I work nights and my days off are often in middle of the week ,like today. So not a whole lot to do at home in middle of the week.. Well wife can think of a whole lot of things for me to do while at home alone but they are not very fun.

Yup, working stiff over here. Nice break from entering numbers into funky programs to check out what's going on over here.

Otherwise the numbers start to eat my mind.

Cool. I did that (or basically that) for several years for both my kids while finishing up my latest schooling and starting back to full time employment.

Now, I'm back as a professor and my days are way too busy to check here, when I'm at school. However, I still get there late after seeing my kids off on the bus or dropping off at daycare, and I get home before the bus arrives so I get a little free time for browsing...like now.

Otherwise, I mostly spend time doing this in the evening in one window while I prep for classes in the other.
