Work Ethic

I’ve come to realize that my work habits at my old job were something like this: 

  • Roll in
  • Fuck around on the internet for an hour
  • Do work while keeping Facebook and Dashboard tabs open
  • Eat lunch and fuck around on the internet 
  • Do work while keeping Facebook and Dashboard tabs open
  • Fuck around on the internet for another hour
  • Complain that I’m underappreciated
  • Leave

At my new job, my schedule and deliverables make my work habits more like this:

  • Roll in
  • Work
  • Eat lunch while quickly ensuring that the internet has not collapsed
  • Work
  • Leave

This is not a value judgement. If you’ve got the time to waste at work, then by all means, waste it. I watched entire movies at my old job and read the entire Cracked and Television Without Pity Archives. I just wanted to let you all know why the Well may seem a little dry these days. 

What we don’t have in quantity will be more than made up for with quality. Oh baby.
