Are you on TRF when you should be working?

So how many of you out there right now are spending time on this forum as an alternative to being productive at work? Do you do it often? Ever been nailed by the boss for being here (or maybe you are the boss)?

As for me: Guilty as charged.

Let's hear your stories.

MY boss always asks if I'm coming to bed, when it's 1am and I'm yet here.

'TRFing' - nice, Chris. Now you kids talk amongst yourselves. I've got to go sell something, but will check back later.

It was a matter of time before this topic came up.

I'm guilty, but have not been charged. Fortunate to be able to telecommute 100% from home.

I'm the boss, so I say it is ok. However, sometimes I am a little busy to be able to check
