    I know I generally have the Weddingbee site up from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm when I leave work- I may not be posting or reading ALL day, but I am definitely on here more than my boss would probably like if he knew! How many of you spend time on here that should *technically* be spent doing something productive for your company?

    I clicked the second option...there are some days when I am more active on weddingbee during the workday (uh, today!) and others I am not.  Shhhhhhh!

    My boss told me to write this:

    YES.  SHE IS ON ALL THE TIME.  I HOPE SHE GETS MARRIED SOON BECAUSE SHE'S COSTING ME MONEY!

    Which is crap because I have no tasking right now.  Do you use Weddingbee at work? :  wedding Icon Wink

    If I wasn't on WB I still wouldn't have anything to do!

    My job is currently a lot of "hurry up and wait" -- and my "company's" network doesn't block much of anything, so, of course I access Weddingbee TONS during the day.  What can I say?  I'm addicted!

    I'm highly amused at the fact that this post has only been up for what, 15 minutes? And there are already a good number of votes! Everyone who would vote right now is probably at work, so maybe we'll see some no's around 7 or so tonight. Do you use Weddingbee at work? :  wedding Icon Wink

     

    I frequently have to do the "quick click out of the browser and open something work related" dance when one of my coworkers or superiors come in my office!

    I, too, am guilty of using Weddingbee at work. Do you use Weddingbee at work? :  wedding Icon Redface  But just on my little breaks of when I have downtime. Works gets so stressful sometimes--it's nice to have a wedding+ escape into the hive.

    It's kind of embarassing to admit, but I am DEFINITELY on WeddingBee more than I should be while I'm at the office. ;)  glad I'm not the only one!

    Hahah yup!  When it's super slow and I have all of my stuff done... It doesn't hurt to take a peak to see what other bees are up to. :)

    I'm in the same boat most of the time...work can be slow, and weddingbee is my distraction of choice.

    Actually, I think I should probably do a little more work and a little less weddingbee, because even though I'm leaving my job after the wedding, I want to leave on a good note!

    For all of those bees that said they come to WB when work is slow, I'm right there with you. And lately, work has been much slower.... :)

    Depends on the day and the workload, but I'm here every day during work.  Some days it's way more than others!

    It's so nice to get an immediate answer to a question that would otherwise drive you nuts all day! Engineering is boring....it's nice to get in some girly wedding stuff during the day since I work with ALL men and they could care less about my wedding and I don't want to bore them. I still get my work done. And I keep my sanity!

    Weddingbee is definitely open all day while I'm at work, so I'm more of an occasional browser throughout the entire work day! In fact, I'm at work right now and have been on WB for the last 30mins :) should prob get back to work LOL

    I'm on Weddingbee every day at work. I try to keep it limited to my breaks, but that is nearly impossible!

    I keep it open, but I have about six Internet Explorer windows open at any given time during the day (all work-related except one), plus my work e-mail, Excel, and who knows what else, and I'm constantly switching between windows. If want to open WB or my non-work e-mail, I make the open window really tiny.  For instance, right now, the window is only big enough for me to see about half of the comment box at a time.

    I work in a very relaxed office, and even though we're "not supposed" to use our computers for non-work purposes except on our lunch break, I know everyone does.  People check their e-mails, news websites, etc., all the time, and sometimes talk to each other about the things they're reading. As long as the work gets done, I don't think anyone cares that much, although I try to minimize my non-work use just for the sake of being responsible.

    I live on this site when I am at work.. All I do is hurry up and wait for the "tones" to go off. Until then I am on weddingbee or surfing or studing. Sometimes all of them at the sametime. I dont know what I did with my time before the bees.

    I can't get on while I'm at work.  If I could I probably would, though!  Maybe you can add that as an option. Do you use Weddingbee at work? :  wedding Icon Biggrin

    Haha I am at work right now... ooopsie! I always have a ton of stuff open on my desktop... Outlook, various work-related programs, so if I see someone coming, I can easily switch. Haha, that sounds soooo bad!
