spurious signal Caldari Brainiacs	Posted - 2006.08.30 13:33:00 - [31] Originally by: Ethidium Bromide something else to do at work i suppose Talking of work, I'm guessing, from your name, that your work is similar to mine. although we don't use Eth.Br any more
Usotsuki	Posted - 2006.08.30 13:42:00 - [32] I play eve at work sometimes. Unfortunately, as the only person in the IT department for a company with over 100 PCs and a handful of servers, in the time it takes to boot up eve and set a destination, i get interrupted. I get paid pretty well, but free time is a luxory i still can't afford.
Norris Neophitus Minmatar Hidden Agenda	Posted - 2006.08.30 13:42:00 - [33] Research ftw I can now diagnose a number of sleep disorders talk for hours about the short comings of microsoft, quote a few stats from toms harware i best stop before i start trying to make a brainstorm diagram of all my research over this week alone. Ohh and i read the forums when no ones looking.
Mikey Monkfish	Posted - 2006.08.30 15:24:00 - [34] I never thought this topic would become the spam-fest that it has. On a lighter note, I've finished work and I'm waiting to be picked up, so I'll be playing Eve in a bit!
Idaeus Gallente Crimson Wings Squadron	Posted - 2006.08.30 15:36:00 - [35] I read the forums. The county wouldn't like it if one of their 911 Operators had EVE splashed across our three screen setup (though that'd be sweet). Of course they do have several flat panel TVs in the call center so we can watch TV when we're not busy. +IOI?
Anfelina Adante Gallente	Posted - 2006.08.30 16:42:00 - [36] I make a daily list of options and then review them in my mind at work. That makes the day go by for me.

Katabrok First Caldari Kindergarden Corp	Posted - 2006.08.30 16:44:00 - [38] Reading the forums and running evemon. The only problem is when your skill ends on work hours. Then I go to the bathroon and scream a lot. Katabrok, the space barbarian. I want the The Correct DreadÖ!!!!
Za Po Caldari	Posted - 2006.08.30 16:47:00 - [39] Originally by: Damien Smith I just applied that logic to your post and now my brain's stuck in an infinite loop. Don't worry, I can fix that. picks up a transcranial microcontroller
MuadChef Amarr Fate. Dusk and Dawn	Posted - 2006.08.30 16:54:00 - [40] I have been working with 6 very attractive promo girls for the last 5 weeks... So it makes life easy.. But normally the need for the next eve 'fix' is too high.. I hate thinking about corp stuff at work, it screws with your head.. Fate Corp
G0rF Gallente The Causality	Posted - 2006.08.30 16:59:00 - [41] I do my job. I have a job I hate, although not as much as any other job I've ever had in my 15 year career (Now a web-dev, used to be an... oh god I can't even say it... accountant). As I see it, if it was fun, it'd be a hobby, and you wouldn't get paid for it. Work = Boredom, Frustration, Stress and Earning. Home = Relaxation, Gaming, fun and Spending. Mutually exclusive, and as seperate as it's possible to make them.
Oosel Nightmare Holdings	Posted - 2006.08.30 17:20:00 - [42] hog the forums all day gleaning snippets of info to post on our own boards and pray that i will always finish before my skill does
Death Kill Caldari direkte	Posted - 2006.08.30 17:27:00 - [43] Edited by: Death Kill on 30/08/2006 17:26:59 Originally by: Mikey Monkfish I just wondered how you lot survive the day waiting for your next Eve "Fix" I train some skills here and there, carefully plan to end up with alot of skills with 8 hours left. Then before I go to work I set those skills skill training completed I hear when I log on after coming home. Sweet. Recruitment
Gaia's Wrath	Posted - 2006.08.30 17:32:00 - [44] First buy a cheap router for your home (IPSEC based). Second talked to the IT guy if you are not him and do a little payoff if needed or trickery i.e. i work from home and the office and need to do secure file transfers, bosses love it when you want do extra work from home, hehe. Then set up a encrpted VPN tunnel to your home from your office. Turn down the z-buffer (I think, its one of the graphic options). Launch eve for your office computer from your home computer over the tunnel. Net captures will show encrypted packets. No games on your local machine and depending on your office computer graphics you can play Eve all day long and nobody will know.
Kaomi Zorbaz	Posted - 2006.08.30 17:33:00 - [45] Originally by: Crumplecorn I make posts where the first sentence contradicts itself. lmao
Gaia's Wrath	Posted - 2006.08.30 17:36:00 - [46] Oh and virtual servers are fun too. I believe Microsoft Virtual server 2005 R2 is now free. Awesome for test environments and bypassing network montoring with loopbacks. Weeeeeeeee, oh FYI virtual server has the potential to have the same impact outlook had on business users. If your in IT and don't have a test environment you is just crazy or stupid you choose.
Locke DieDrake Port Royal Independent Kontractors Imperial Republic Of the North	Posted - 2006.08.30 17:43:00 - [47] I post on the forums, occasionally log in to change a skill or buy something/sell something. But mainly at work, I work. It just so happens that my work ebs and flows alot, so I end up with alot of down time. Also, I'm my own boss at a company I helped create. So if I am not working when I should be, I'm only hurting myself. ___________________________________________ The deeper you stick it in your vein, the deeper the thoughts there's no more pain. ___________________________________________
Tsavong Lah Caldari Solar Storm Axiom Empire	Posted - 2006.08.30 17:46:00 - [48] I don't have the net at work, so no eve/forums for me. I just try not to pwn the newbies too badly while trying to make everyone hate work almost as much as me Oh, that plus staring at the chicks. I got a jar of dirt!
Surly Bob The Church of Violentology	Posted - 2006.08.30 17:51:00 - [49] Originally by: Mikey Monkfish I'm sat in work now with unrestricted internet access, but unable to play Eve as my company has strict download and games policies I just wondered how you lot survive the day waiting for your next Eve "Fix" I would touch up my resume, because I'm about to be replaced by an Indian or Chinese who doesn't surf the internet when he's supposed to be working. --- Add a MANUAL 0km warp option. Leave autopilot at 15km ranges. Done. All fixed.

Ralgur	Posted - 2006.08.30 18:13:00 - [51] Originally by: Benco97 Originally by: Mikey Monkfish Which isn't good as Eve needs the client software installed. :( Eve will quite happily run from a usb stick, no need for any files to touch the hard drive. So, how big of a USB stick do you think is needed? Sure, I can check the file sizes and all, but I'm curious if anyone has tried this such that they have a suggestion in regards to what size stick works best?

No games on your local machine and depending on your office computer graphics you can play Eve all day long and nobody will know. Actually at my old company my boss used to walk around staring at people's work asking what they were doing and whenever anybody would zoom out for a bit, he'd ask what they were doing x 100 times a day. I seriously doubt that your boss walking around will not notice your BS ganking poor innocent souls somewhere in JITA ;-) In addition, there are backstabbing colleagues, who will mostly gossip about you playing EVE to your boss, that sometimes you are dreaming of podding, wishing there was no cloning (ressurection if u like) feature in - game. PS: I'm unemployed, live at home with mom and dad, but i'm optimistic ;-) hehehehehe Long Live Warriors

Suvetar Forum Moderator Interstellar Services Department	Posted - 2006.08.30 18:48:00 - [53] I like to make sure that people post in the right forum forum rules \| [email protected] \| Our new Website!

Frash Gallente The Scope	Posted - 2006.08.31 16:16:00 - [55] Originally by: Mikey Monkfish Originally by: Crumplecorn Originally by: Mikey Monkfish Originally by: Crumplecorn I make posts where the first sentence contradicts itself. Eh? Originally by: Mikey Monkfish I'm sat in work now with unrestricted internet access, but unable to play Eve as my company has strict download and games policies Ahh, I see where the confusion is now. I can access any site I want as they are not filtered or blocked, however, I am not allowed to download any software or play any games. Which isn't good as Eve needs the client software installed. :( actually you don't need it installed, just copy the ccp folder to a 2 gig usb drive and it works fine. i wouldn't do any combat for it, but mining and selecting a skill training to do is fine. Don't like EVE-Radio.com? Try ETN.FM or Afterhoursdjs.com
Michuh Vortex. Maelstrom Alliance	Posted - 2006.08.31 17:02:00 - [56] Originally by: Jim McGregor I very much agree. I couldnt live with myself if I hated my job. Ive tried to do something I hated before, and I lasted 4 months, then I had to quit to not become one of those people who hates everybody and everything. Im working on getting a new job currently and Im optimistic... :) Sounds like I need a new job. Im fast approaching that "hate everyone and everything" stage. Maelstrom Recruitment
