There is a certain giddyness...

that sweeps over me when I'm on tribe at work. I try to do a little work and then this little spark inside my brain says, "Oooooh, just check one more tribe. C'mon, you know you hate this work. Why bust your ass? They'll just pile more work on your desk if you do. Hey, look there's a post in Evil Penguins and 3 in JOBHATERS! You don't want to let your fellow tribe members down, now do you?"

See, this is why the only time I get any work done while I'm at work is when I'm stoned. My employer should start buying my weed for me.

    Heh. I used to get high every morning before going to my shitty video editing job. It made it so much easier to deal with the idiots and assholes we had for clients...

    When I started teaching, the getting high before work thing had to come to an end.

      Yeah, you wouldn't want to be high at the same time as your students.

        Actually it's OK for certain subjects. I used to do it all the time when I was a teaching assistant in grad school. But that was just video stuff, I could teach that even if I had a full chemical lobotomy. Teaching 3D animation, however, is another matter.
