Lest you think that all I do during the day is post on my blog and check other people's blogs, I just wanted to say that I do actually work.The thing is, I work with a web-based system that can take a very long time to process what I am doing. Like right now, this newsletter I am assembling. It has about 5 pictures in it. Each time I upload a picture, I will hit "Upload" and then it will freeze up the screen and process the uploading for about 5 full minutes. I can't use the screen, I can't do anything. So I flip over to another browser and do something to keep me busy. If I have emails from people here at work, I answer those.
But right now I don't. It's slow here because it is summer and gobs of people are on vacation. So here I am, sitting in my cube waiting for things to load.
After building this newsletter, I am going to do some reporting that will require me processing data, one screen at a time, around 110 times or more. Yesterday when I did it, each screen took around 7 minutes to load. Good times.
Zzzzzz....
