So now I'm not writing a training document about Lotus Notes.

i'm not sending out papers for a validation meeting,
i'm not trying to set up a staff development day,
i'm not trying to re-write a couple of handbooks,
i'm not preparing for another big validation event,
i'm not trying to see applications smoothly through the process
i'm not massaging the egos of all the convenors i have to work with
i'm not trying to put together an induction programme
(and these are just today's jobs!)
is anyone avoiding as much work as me?

Where else should I be on a Sunday evening when the TV/Radio are c**p and I've read every book in the house.Catch me dusting,ironing never.I'm with Quentin Crisp about dusting.If you leave it long enough it doesn't get any worse.Also as the entire household despite my best efforts thinks of the floor as a filing system who am I to try and disarrange their system by vacuuming.So I'm in the right place at the moment.Of course I SHOULD be sipping a cocktail on a Jamaican beach but fat chance of that.

I'm sitting in the university library with a project group watching one of our members pound out a lab report. At least I look busier than the other two guys.

I am avoiding coding a fix to prevent the users creating a claim if the policy has a missing section, risk or coverage record because it is far too tedious a job for a human....even a nerd such as myself.

Having finished my own piece of work I should be helping my colleagues finish theirs, however, as a reward for my own efficiency I am pretending I am still working by messing about here.

Zantic - Who is this woman?? Posted Oct 8, 2001
I am not going through the results of the last years work checking to see if my maths is right. For that would be FAR too depressing, seeing as how my maths is worse than that of a below intellectual avarage neanderthal...

I'm relaxing after work, so if anyone has so much housework to do that they need a hand with not doing it then i'll chip in and avoid doing it with them.
