I swear the first thing I do after I open my work email is get on SDN. Thank God for tabbed browsing, it lets me switch to work stuff in a jiff!

 

[tourniquet1963]

that would be me.... 6 more minutes to go though.. YES!!!

 

[aaj117]

haha yes. every single day that i'm at work this window is open. It's kinda sad. Well, more than kinda. It's really really sad. I just keep it in my head that at least i only have this job for six more months. it's not that i don't like this job, it's just that i'll be more prepared to give up such internet addictions when i'm not at a desk all day.

 

[prettymonkey]

yup

 

[Bacchus]

No, but when I'm in my apartment it is. I guess I could use it on my broadband access phone but I don't have a data plan.

 

[orthomodel]

Right? I keep telling myself that I only have 6 more months of this monotony. Everyone's really cool about me leaving for interviews but still, accounting is not someting I want to be doing for the rest of my life...other than doing my taxes once a year.

+1. I have it saved on my iphone so when im running errands for work, i can still have sdn open

I don't have a computer at home but I do have my trusty Palm Centro, SDN looks about the same on a teeny tiny screen.

👍 And I just enjoyed reading your mdapps. Liked the puppet master image.

I peruse SDN on my iphone on public transportation or taxis. Although sometimes I do get a little queasy looking at that little screen while moving....

 

[Smiley2012]

me too! I'm so freakin' bored at work!! I'm also counting down the months until school...also on my other tabs are: gmail, myspace, facebook. okay TMI, lol

That's probably where my first 3,000 posts came from.

Phoenix: Thanks! I got waitlisted so apparently I didn't dance hard enough.

but no matter, I'm still here at work perusing SDN. And no, I do not have a life.

Let's see, I browse SDN with my morning "joe" before rounding with my team at 6:30AM. I browse SDN on the OR computer between cases after dictating and I browse SDN before I hit the rack at night. The RSS feeds are a good thing because I can catch threads as they come up on my office computer too. Great way to burn up some time while waiting.

 

[seraph524]

I have SDN open when I hold review sessions and office hours.

 

[DrZhivago1240]

Yes, the sdn window is almost always open while I'm at work...along with Facebook...it's a bit distracting. I've already fallen into "biding my time" before med school starts in August. 😀

 

[HanginInThere]

👍

Sigh. Add me to the "counting down the months" list.

 

[Vihsadas]

The SDN Window can be closed?

...preposterous!

 

[daman4886]

thanks SDN for getting me addicted and contributing to my senioritis

 

[spilledmilk]

it definitely keeps me from getting bored at work!

I always have a browser open with the following tabs:


AOLRadio
Meebo.com (in browser chat application)
SDN



I still get plenty of work done! I swear....

 

[SBBunny]

There was one day when I was so bored that I started drawing in MS Paint. Thank you, SDN, for giving me a way to look busy when I have nothing to do! I'm at the point where I regularly check the Allopathic forum and occasionally peruse the Mayo thread, even though Mayo rejected me months ago. *SIGH* It would have been my top choice. . .

SDN was just down for about 5 minutes. I kept feverishly hitting the refresh button. You know how you don't realize you're addicted to something until it's taken away?

I *also* realized that I haven't done any actual work all day. Oops.

ditto.

sometimes, i get so into reading stuff on SDN that i almost forget about meetings. oops.

 

[twilightcitysky]

Oh, AND I spent the time that SDN was down making myself an MDapps profile.
