My reply was "if you are going to have a go at me for having a coffee rarely in working hours, you make sure you speak to the few blokes who go out for a smoke several times a day".. He said fair point and said enjoy your coffee

The smokers at one of my previous positions didn't like me highlighting to the management that 3 smokes a day at around 8 minutes each became 24 minutes a day ( for easy numbers ) which became 2 hours a week and across the 48 weeks you work a year (48*2=96) that was 2.5 * 38 hour weeks they weren't working and I was.

He was ok with them doing so, so I played along with the umpires call and when they went out for a smoke I went out and sat with them. He asked me once what I was doing, I said I was taking some of the 2.5 weeks he owed me 8 minutes at a time, 3 times a day.

I'm at my work station, I'm still working, quite often on the phone while on here too.

You smoke many a day?

I have 3 screens mate and what I do is is in 90 second cycles so I have like 80 seconds to reply to emails and print stuff off or sit here scratching my balls.

On the other hand. I'm here for 9 to 10 hours a day and get paid for 7.5.

But yeah, I get your drift

They all plugged in?

I can only do one thing at a time so I don’t even pretend with multiple monitors

I've got two screens. Same deal with load times.

Here 9 hours a day, get paid 7.5.

Work efficiently, so I have ample time to talk shit on multiple platforms, as well as watch some sport while working.

I also manage the Spartans social media, coaching plans, juniors program and any other shit during work hours.

Still get at least double the work done compared to everyone else.

And me at 30. (Been Operations Manager for 3 years)

This gives me the shits, because basically, both guys under 50 are drivers, so not here.

Its a f**kin retirement village here...

Basically have to "troubleshoot" computer "problems" such as terminal things like minimised windows, colour printing, emails, turning computers on...etc.

Heaters always on.

I reckon we could halve the staff and run at the same pace...but it's not up to me.
