Honestly reading this makes me a little bit sick to my stomach. Do you know what most people would give for that amount of spare time? I could build so much, learn so much, do so much... or would I just sit there and play snake?
- colmvp 13y agoIt's okay, just do it tomorrow.
- Finster 13y agoCan't. I just penciled in some time to catch up on baseball scores.

- callmeed 13y ago> what most people would give for that amount of spare time? No, they wouldn't. You could do so much, but we live in a world where people spend 7 hours a month on Facebook and a game called Candy Crush makes over $600,000 per day.
- rphlx 13y agoWhile way more than $600,000/day of developer time goes into making thousands of lame, derivative cell phone games that less than 100 people will ever play. Fueled by the mostly-irrational hope of creating That One Big Hit.

Any internet access at all opens up a whole world of things you could do, from honing job skills or working on open source software projects, or even just contributing to Wikipedia.

- adrusi 13y agoIt's quite possible that he left out the fact that he did something productive in order to highlight the corporate fuck-upery. Some deeply nested comment above points to this being the case.
