I read TB while watching TV. I think my addiction to TB is just about the same as my addiction to "Law and Order".
And who cares? As long as it doesn't interfer with work or sex.

I'd say working. But even without TB, I doubt I would get much accomplished. I'm a professional procrastinating apathetic .

Same here.
Though I am having problems with my boss that is keeping me plenty unmotivated right now...
Trevorus said:
Yeah, I'm basically in the same boat. I used to take pride in what I do (did...well, still do but with much less enthusiasm...well, ok...NO enthusiasm) and tirelessly work, even overtime (sometimes without pay) because at one point I cared.
Now I don't. I get done what needs to get done...and that's about it. I don't even really care how well I do it.
Thus I am now a professional procrastinating apathetic. Hmm...I should get new business cards.

Well, the problem I am having is that she treats me like an employee, when I am an independant contractor. And then she also want's to be friends, when really we should have a professional relationship, and that's it at work.
That, and the way she has ignored some OSHA regulations, it has got me a bit apathetic about the job in general.
hehe, well what im SUPPOSED to be doing, is super important, im in charge of international affairs at my new job, its a new department so this is the first time we are doing anything like this. so im currently writing up a list of procedures and check lists that coincide with the shipping laws of Londan and the US. as well as the requierments of the middle men we are using to help us ship and distribute.
im about 2/3rds done but i really want to go and pick up my new whammy and delay pedal and start fiddeling around so my mind is else where. this could be bad
i need to get my head in the game, my boss treats me the way i wish my dad had treated me growing up
i dont want to let him down.

I'm supposed to be working, but here's the thing.....it looks like I'm working, at least to the cameras.

haha, everytime my mom asks me to do something around the house, i open up bash and it looks like im reading a very important document lol
Sundogue said:
Wow, that pretty much describes my situation. You and Trev need to do the same thing I did..........resign. If you're good at what you do, you'll get another job.

I'm just biding my time while I resume my full-time career as a professional artist. I've been a network admin for over ten years and I'm just burnt out.

I'm seriously thinking of doing that and reporting her for the crap she's pulled against OSHA regulations and IRS employment regulations.

::high five:: lol
Yeah, I have been having some major problems with people taking advantage of me, and I just let it happen. Really had an emotional breakdown yesterday, but I'm going to turn into a hardass, now! Tell them what for.
Trevorus said:
dont need to become a hard ass, just stand up for yourself and put your foot down, u can still be easy going.
im as easy going as it gets but when my foot goes down, its down and nobodies stepping on it. just voice yourself and hold ur head up high and chest out. and if all else fails, at least u have a large blunt object to beat them with
lolon a side note, or a back on topic note.. lol
right after i said i need to get my head in the game, i followed it up by making mac and cheese and watching comedy central for an hour lol
