where do you sit at work?

I'm in a cubicle but my computer can be seen if anyone walks past or in the hall. i can go on TCS at breaks and at lunch, not during work.

For half of my job I am in a nice little cozy room with cement walls (no window) that we like to call the bunker, because I am on the phone all of the time so I can log onto TCS anytime.
The other half of my job I am in a room with 2 other people no cubicle walls but no one knows what I do as my job (it's quite specailized) so they don't care what i'm doing as long as I get somthing done. Yay TCS!

I have a large cubicle right outside the HR guy's office, and my back is to the doorway, so anybody walking past me (or standing in my cubicle to chat with somebody else -- I'm still not used to that and find it quite rude!) can see what I'm doing. I'm a temp here and nobody has actually bothered to explain their Internet policy, so I just assume I'm not really supposed to be online and flip over to something else. I do data entry all day, though, so I really need a break from seeing the same screen over and over again.

I have my own office and i sit at my desk facing the door.

I agree with Crystal. If you're at work, you're there to work, not to do personal stuff! I have my own office but am kept very busy all day and we are not supposed to do personal stuff while there. Having said that, we do have a computer in the staff lounge that we can use during our lunch if we want - I may be doing that! Just joined here recently so we'll see how it goes. I've been on vacation but back to work tomorrow.

It was weird--at my new job, they told me they couldn't hook up my internet until I signed the internet policy, but then they never sent it to me, but they hooked up my internet anyway. Regardless, I'm too visible to my co-workers and more importantly my boss, to do non-work related stuff on the internet during the day. I briefly check my personal email during lunch, but that's it. I miss TCS.

I'm in a single cubicle with high walls, but people can see what I'm doing when they walk by. I try not to make it obvious that I'm looking at TCS, but I don't think I do it that often. I do it more when I'm on a conference call, or waiting for something to load up, or if I just need a 2 minute mental break from what I'm doing.

I'm certainly very busy and get all of my work done, so nobody could complain!

Right now I sit in a large central room that I usually share with the receptionist but she quit so now I am alone... but the boss has to walk through to get to the printer so although I'm way in a corner my screen faces in a way that he can see it if he walks through, which is often. He offered me a private office but honestly, I don't like my job, and know I would sit on the net 8 hours a day if I was alone and no work would get done so I declined.

I start teaching tomorrow.....pre-K and K so no computer then after noon I am a secratary for my mom and she's a very busy woman......still no computer time.

I sit in a cubicle in a pretty low-traffic area. If someone walks in I occasionally get caught, but I try to limit my TCS time to lunch and after hours (usually). It depends on how busy I am. Last week I was so busy I couldn't get here at all...either at work or any other time.

My office is in my living room... well for the computer part of work... The other part I am in stores so no TCS there ...

The girl I share my office with quit last week so now I have my own office, at least until we find someone to replace her, but that wont change my net habits, as I said before, we have down times where I can be online and then busier times where I have to stay until 7pm and barely get a lunch break

I have my own office, with my name on the door, and carpet. My desk faces the door, so anyone that comes in would have to walk around my desk to see what I'm doing. My office is right next door to my boss's though. Oh, and I work for the Information Technology department of a University, so the Internet is absolutely, 100% necessary for me to do my job.

Besides, my fiance works in the networking group of the same department, and he would make sure I had Internet anyway.
