So I just got caught checking LJ on the computer at work. The year and a half I've worked here at the store, I've come really really close to getting caught being delinquint at work, but I've never actually gotten caught before. At least my boss is out of town and it was one of the other old ladies.
She scared the mess out of me. And at least she didn't catch me reading. That's right, I brought a book to work with me, one which I finished reading like ten minutes ago, and then I was going to get online for a sec before filing the last few claims and leaving at 5 pm. So I'm scanning over LJ, peering close to the screen to read, when I hear a voice. I don't know how she made it all the way down the stairs without me ever hearing her. She must have been in stealth mode. So I nonchalantly sit back in my chair and minimize the window, but not too fast, because that looks even more suspicious. Then I looked at her and she was staring at the screen, looking confused and she was mumbling something. So I asked her when the boss would be back in town and blah blah blah and was remarking about the problems I had with a few previous claims. She proceeded to the bathroom (the whole reason she had come downstairs) then made some comment about how I was almost finished with those and should she do something that I have no clue what she was talking about, hehe...
Oh well, it could have been worse. I'm sure she won't think much of it. It was just LJ. Not like I was watching David Firth flash videos (not that I could since the sound on this computer doesn't work).
I'm going to have to keep a better ear out from now on...geez...I can't believe I didn't even hear her...I'm sure she's just going to think I'm down here goofing off all the time...oh well, at least I cover my tracks well...
This is the day,
