Never, but I must admit I rarely am at a job. When I work I work though. I'm generally not using other computers than my own recreationally and I don't need a phone with internet to surf the net in every free minute (I do that at home )
I'm going through a relatively mild existential crises at the moment, so that the people on the planet are overwhelming me to the point that even great masterworks of art (like the Great Pyramid, for example) confound to frighten me. So I'm a bit sensitive to the feelings of others as well.
ATM, I can relate to the existential crisis part, but not really to the sensitive to the feelings of others thingy :-/
It's not; for me, what is normal is a hypersensitivity to the feelings of others, however I was using sarcasm by under valuing my emotions and empathy, by "a bit" I meant "way too much".
I thought that much, I just thought how you worded it it actually is normal Now that I think of it I mainly find comfort in other peoples feelings when I'm going to something like an existential crisis. It reminds me we are all in the same boat basically.
The problem is that, for people like us who 'know', there just simply is nowhere to run; suicide is absolutely ruled out as a viable option, because then it will grow exponentially worse. I feel sorry for those who seek solace in words (God knows, I'm one of them) when the only truly meaningful art has it's source in pain and suffering. Yes, well.. but, why? Well, but why not, right? The wheels on the bus go round and round!! If I keep going, I'll end up talking myself into dancing a jig.
Yes Asmo, that right there is the beauty of it, I cannot claim to be enduring feelings of universal compassion on the scale of the buddha (although that has happened once, on mushrooms.. an experience I hope to never endure again) or of Christ dying on the cross and taking on the sins of the world ('have mercy on us') but I do feel it so poignantly that it is become rather stifling. But yes, ultimately this is a wonderful thing and I should be disgusted with myself were I incapable of such feelings.
I just started a new job yesterday, and logged on. My monitor faces toward a hall though and I am self conscious about the purple and pot leaves and sex ads, so I went in quick while I ate a sandwich. I'm not sure if I'll post or not. I'll give it some time.
I'm not currently working, but at my last job, I would occasionally post from my phone. I wouldn't use their computer to post, however I would use their computer to check out other sites, such as zillow, CNN, and craigslist.
Yes I am.. but not because I don't post on an internet forum from my place of employment. Not sure where you were going with that post? I can do whatever I want, but I'm paid on production and I work hard. I'm not gonna make $500/day sitting on the computer.
It's not obvious? Your irritation was my aim; mayhap I mislike the tone of your inquiry? I thought it clear that you've taken to a peculiar mislike of me, and so when opportunity arises, I take advantage of it. It's all of a particular style of vacuousness, no? After all it's bound to happen, especially online, misgivings and vague notions of presumed irresolvable personal differences are commonplace.
I mostly post from work and while working from home. Maybe 5% of my posts are done during my free time, usually during sleepless nights.
