Probably some kind of Server Management Team Tech who just sits and waits for trouble calls.

Yep! I manage a small staff and just do paper work and write programs all day and do password resets. if I get called into a problem, the $hit hit the fan and nobody is going anywhere until its fixed.

I never log off so it's a trick question. I have 2 copies of explorer running all the time, one here, one wherever else.

I tend to post in flurries but i said 10-15 hours a week. note, I'm often working while I'm posting. This morning I made 3-4 posts while on a 8am conference call at my desk, I type fast and I'm pretty good at talking about one thing while typing about another.

I think its a skill you acquire after years of watching sports on tv while pretending to hear what your girlfriend is talking about!

It varies by day, workload, and my level of motivation (to work), but maybe 15-20.

10-15 for me. I am a supervisor so I do my part early so I have plenty of time to surf.

I sneak on to read at work during days were big news is possible but only post at home.

My work fires people for sending nonbusiness interoffice emails, I ain't pushing my luck.

I actually got a call from our IT guys because I was using so much bandwidth and it wasn't a problem yet, but i wasn't using the computer in accordance with company policy!! Oops...

I'm a senior PC tech, so I check out the website, to ensure the PC's are connecting to the internet properly...

That logs me at about 15 hours a week, at work.

In fact, I'd say in any given day, I only do about 15 minutes of real work, and spend the rest of the day looking busy so I don't get hassled. ( By the way, if you are in the IS field, it is a must to see the movie Office Space. - Unfortunately, it is my life. I often catch myself wanting to say the phrase "Go away Lumberg.. I'm busy" )
