Buy one of those sliklips devices that will jerk you off under the desk.Originally posted by diseasex View PostSo I'm on this contract. Nothing to do, way ahead of everybody. Reading browsing.
The problem is the camera is behind my back facing monitors and they've proved they are looking at it. I'm out of ideas how to stall this contract further. Everyone seems to be working, can't be caught on anything but code, but they are sooooooo SLOW.
1. browse and risk getting caught and sacked
2. deliver 6 months in 2 months and lose billable days (which I don't want, it's close to my home and rate is good)?
Any ideas?Comment
