Default Things that make you smile..

People on the internet or gaming during work time

It really amuses me when I get a drink from the kitchen that when I walk past the desks of at least 30% of my colleagues, they quickly close or minimize windows to hide their non-work activity

Even better if you have to talk to them and quietly approach, catching them red-handed

Its quite instinctive. I know Im allowed my internet useage during work time as long as my work is done and up to date so I shouldnt have any guilty feelings about using it, yet whenever someone comes down here to talk to me I automatically close it. Not quite sure why lol

Instinct due to the dodgy sites you normally look at?

lol I see a lot of this (I work in IT !), silly really as I can see exactly what everyone is looking at. We get a few people that adjust their monitors so their body is hiding the screen - now that is really sad in my eyes.
Got asked last week why does our systems run slow at 12 -2 - well its all the people just playing on the web - mostly facebook users !

I look at what the hell I want, when I want. That is if I am not busy, though some goddam client sites block certain websites (probably because we set them up )

ALT & TAB is great
