Topic: Does anyone else play with Bitcoins at work? - page 2. (Read 2956 times)
I figure as long as you don't abuse using it at work, and still manage to get your work done, is it really a problem?
I'm sitting on Bitcointalk 50% at work and 50% at home. So it's not a problem
I do all my bitcoinBTC research from work, what else better to do when stuck behind a desk with a laptop (Other then Porn) 
I do most of my bitcoin stuff at work....web development has it's perks
Cheers to that!
How do web developers have so much free time? Don't you have deadlines and multiple projects?
They often have leaders who don't catch anything which is technical, and workload estimation is never correct. These two things make it easy to have free time.
Exactly. And longer you work, more shortcuts you know, faster you can do your job. Part of that "saved" time i give to my emplyer (as look bos, i made it sooner than we agreed) and part i give to myself to cool down from work and type posts like this on forums. My boss is happy, and i'm happy.
At work, i spend some time to read bitcointalk and coindesk. I write some code on bitcoin : http://seedguardian.github.io/. And I run vanitygen to get different addresses.
My biggest problem with free time when people say they are so busy at work, it probably (not all the time) means you aren't very good at what you do.
The people that do it around my office are terrible at what they do.
An example: A few years ago I got bumped down due to seniority and this position was meant to be 36 hours a week and they expected you have to have to take overtime to finish the job, because it was very challenging and very hard to do.
My actual work I did during that job that was supposed to be so hard and take a long time, was more like 12 hours a week. I could have handled 3 different projects that other people were doing and been just fine, yes I wouldn't have had free time then....but what are you going to do...

What else to do at work, seriously.
The majority of us is guilty for that im sure
Im an associate who ended up in a shitty project, we all are just chillin here. So i dont feel guilty for dedicating some of my working hours to bitcoin.
I get a lot of "down time" at my job, so very often I am doing my own thing, including occasionally (discreetly) hanging out at Bitcointalk. It's not hard for me to very quickly exit out of it when somebody walks in. Does anyone else do the same?
This is a recognition of the most daring but funny, man.You have to be careful because it could be one of those places you worked here and read this.
however, what you post is representative of what I experienced as well. : P

I like to check the price on my zeroblock app on my phone
Me and my boss lol .. we talk a lot about bitcoin.
Yeah, I play with Bitcoins at work. Sometimes I play with the physical coins in my pocket too.

Nope lol dont have it here
I would stay away from running any sort of Bitcoin client at a work site. That story just came out about the researcher who used the supercomputers to mine Bitcoin. Since Bitcoin is money, most if not all employers would frown upon using company computers for personal financial gain. Even if you are not mining, it could still get you in trouble so you have to ask yourself if it is really worth it. Just like pron, best to wait until you get home
Luckily, Bitcoin is part of my job!
hmmmmm...Interesting, what do you do? If you don't mind me asking, how much do you make as well..
Founder and owner of All Things Luxury! We accept Bitcoin, Quark, Litecoin and Doge atm. Thanks for asking.
