Also, thank you for posting and commenting and making such an exciting community thrive!
Company time.
If you’re paid to do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life.
Commendable
I won’t have what I love tainted by employer/customer expectations.
Slow days at the office, but not slow enough to comfortably get into a game. I go home and do the same thing because I’m too tired to do anything else after pretending to be busy for 8 hours.
Recovering from cancer, no job, no friends, too much time.
Congratulations on the first mark! That’s great to hear.
How much longer in your recovery regimen?
Are you pretty active again?
Thank you so much! I just got news last week that I’m in full remission (although still incurable because myeloma) and my blood tests are “pristine”. Still suffering from extreme post-chemo fatigue, both mental and physical. It is what it is, better than the alternative.
I’m pretty sure I died in 2008 and just haven’t cooled yet.
my job doesn’t pay me enough to care about it for the entire time i’m working
Nice, here’s to hoping you can whittle down the few hours you are not on Lemmy even further.
Post on company time 😉
Code’s compiling, ADD
The best XKCD
I have a bad habit of leaving comments when I want to leave none ever. So comments >0 is too many by my own reckoning. I have the free time because depression. I make these comments because I’ve lost my self control in that respect
I seem to compulsively leave comments as well, I think they help give body to the community.
Its good Lemmy work
That’s a good way to look at it lol, I’m contributing to the Lemmy fluff. Someone will read it and eat 5 seconds of their time, thus contributing to the goal of Lemmy; wasting time
Wating time Learning!
Constant cultural and empathetic expansion!
I work from home.
What else am I supposed to do at work?
I love seeing familiar faces. It’s like talking to your neighbors. I feel it’s an investment. :)
I share your sentiment. I feel optimistically productive while posting, at least some of the time
I check in throughout the day and scroll a little when I get in-between sorts of moments, also watching for notifications. It’s still just fitting into my regular day though, a couple minutes here, a couple minutes there.
It’s actually a lot better than reddit for that, since there isn’t as much activity, so I seldom get sucked deeply in like you can with something with endless content.
I quit work when I was 35 and am now 58 (FIRE long before it became a thing and I didn’t even consider grifting off the life choice) . I dont consider myself prolific but I have time to post if I wish.
That is fire. Congrats.
Why grift after you already have what you need after all?
A while ago, I had A LOT of free time to shitpost on social media, and I was beginning to miss it.
I don’t have as much time anymore. 😭
I’m sorry for your loss.
Claw that free time back.
I don’t post a lot but I have a lot of free time due to being T-boned on my motorcycle from someone running a red light. My mobility has been seriously restricted since. When I was working full time and posting a lot on Reddit I was training corporate engineering sw. When I wasn’t training I had a lot of time on my hands at work so I’d scroll reddit. I was also traveling a lot so I was away from home and reddit was sort of my travel family
Nice to have a community to be a part of, for sure.
Sorry to hear about the asshole hitting you, I hope physical rehab goes well and you regain maximum mobility allowed.
The Dr said my foot was squished like stepping on a grape and you can’t put the grape back together again. But I’m so thankful to have a foot and leg at all after that so I appreciate what I have not what I don’t have, even though it does get burdensome when pain or lack of movement is high
I’m very happy for you and your very healthy perspective, my best to your grape-foot.
A grapefoot is still a great foot.
