I don’t smoke, so it annoys me to no end when I get told that I can’t take a break to do things at work like surf the web or make short and sweet blog posts, but the smokers can go hang out outside and puff away. Jennifer even suggested that I should get a wireless modem for my Handspring Visor and then go outside and blog from outside, enjoying the same amount of time the smokers take for a break.
Now, thanks to Dick, I don’t need any of that! Oh no … I can just take a Cyber Cigarette Break! Ah ha! That’s all I needed all along… Nothing quite like a good refreshing cigarette – even if it’s only virtual!
Unfortunately, I don’t think the boss is going to see that as being the same thing…
