Apart from posting here at BA - do any of you work?

Well now; certainly made me question my work ethic. Having said that, half of my staff will be whiling away their time on facetube and the like, so why should I worry?

Thankfully I am presently engaged in the arduous task of being a student so I am not really expected to work (I leave that to my husband )
FT is a very useful way of avoiding the tedium of being awarded my, ahem, highly valuable PhD in the 'liberal arts' (double )

I'm currently on maternity leave, so am spending my time working out how to spend the hundreds of thousands of Avios I accumulated when I was on maternity leave last time! I spent that stint of maternity leave getting addicted to sites like Paid to Shop, so am trying not to go down the obsessive route this time!
Luckily my little one has begun sleeping through, so I'm less likely to be have a 2am read of FlyerTalk (I will be asking him to wake me up though when the award flights for summer 2013's holiday come on sale!!!)

I work very hard I'll have you know.
As a global head of something or other at Magic Global Mega Law, ranked an expert in the field according to Legal 500. Chambers even describe me in far more glowing terms, although I'm only regarded as second tier, still that puts me in the top 10 in the world, it leaves me little time to post these days.

Work 4 days a week, have FT open most of the time, and able to read threads and send through replies, at home for the week-end do spend time as well, so more replies sent. Work if they are aware do not say anything, or i just quickly if the boss is around exit out, and pretend that i am doing some work, but on the whole very relaxed at work. have many times laughing to myself otherwise i know i would not be allowed to have the internet at all at work. As for lounges, do not take my laptop, do not have a phone that works on the internet, and do not have an ipad, so the lumpy laptop stays at home, would rather spend my time just having a lovely glass of bubbles and something to eat.^

I have to say that I find it harder to spend as much time on FT as I would like but whenever I see a post from HRH PUCCI I find myself drawn like a moth to a flame ........
