White Lies Help Stressed Computer Users

Posted by Zonk on from the working-is-hard-apparently dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Simple tricks allow one to appear to be hard at work in the office while actually forwarding calls, e-mails and instant messages to your mobile phone. One can backdate e-mails through rolling back a computer's built-in clock or use background phone noises to concoct convincing excuses not to go to work."

    Start your own Fight Club and have fun. Screw the work. Screw the boss. Screw all that sh!t you buy even though you don't need it. If this is your first night of Fight Club - you got to fight. And this is a damn offtopic post.

    Its all about the money... "Hey, this blogging thing could make me money if I spend 30 minutes spare time writing up random stuff!" REAL bloggers dont do it for the money, dont even have ads, and just do it to give visitors information about their personal life, or information on whatever the blogs topic is. If there were a new form of "blog" that didnt have ads, and werent meant to create revenue those would be the "blogs" to visit IMO.
