You know you spend too much work time on eve forums when....
1) Your network has speed issues and you mail CCP
2) You Outlook Express open and wonder why 'Turrets and Bays' isn't in the list
3) You start referring to company cars as faction battleships
4) You wonder at how the firm afforded company cars, since they cost 1.75 billion. Each.
5) You refer to your boss as your CEO, even when he's an IT manager
6) Someone asks if you want anything from the shop, and you consider checking the price history on crisps before replying
7) Someone tells you they need help with a setup, and you reply "6 1400mm tech 2, 2 Arby Cruise...."
8) Someone mails you regarding changes to the system, and you refer them to your Devblog
9) You get a smutty mail regarding the office hottie, and you wonder why they spelled 'jugs' with only one G
And Finally
10) You write a 'You know you spend too much time when...' list.

When you keep right clicking in an explorer window and looking for "select all".
When you currently have a terminal server down.. just enough capacity to keep the company working (and I mean just.. ) and you are replying to a "you know you spend to much work time on eve forums when.." thread

You make irrelevent whiny posts that people don't care about, simply for the sake of posting something.

I tried to get the head of my univerity's eutrepreneurship program to use EVE as a business simulatior instead of the crappy web based one we were using.
No love though.
