jen that’s a violation LOL

Did you know that back when the company rules were not as strict as they are now, there was a torrent and an ftp sites for anime in the office??!! Those were the good old days. The only downside back then was that my PC’s HD was only 40 GB. ^_^;

Possible shameless plugging for the otaku populace? If I did this on one of our employee lounges people would crowd around and ask me what I’m watching.

… which brings me to the fact that I don’t bring any stuff they already know. If I brought the latest Naruto episodes (which thankfully I don’t follow, thus this is only but an example) for them to watch I’d be swarmed by closet Narutards in an instant. Bad idea for me.

But yeah, I casually do this on my breaks and spare time, much to the interest of those around me. But then again, I’m not locally employed by any company, so…

@Shin: this was in a conference room, so there still won’t be any problems if I LOL’d XDD Still, no problem LOL-ing, unless you’re watching a fanservice-filled show, which will make people around you go o.O;;

I think my biggest mistake while watching anime at places like these was to laugh out loud.

Dang, makes me wish my higher-ups were more understanding. They run a pretty tight ship – try something as innocent as checking your personal email account and you risk landing an infraction.

Not to worry, one of these days I plan to stick a Nagato wallpaper on top of my default Windows screen as an act of defiance. (And if I’m feeling particularly rebellious, I might – just might – change the font in my reports from Arial to Goudy Old Style.)

Workers of the world, unite!

P.S. I did this during lunch break, not delinquent enough to do this during work hours

@Ryan: i-i-it’s not like this w-was getting in the way of my productivity or a-anything!

@bianki: my boss knows, I even told her I took advantage of the LCD TV during lunch break

@maAkusutipen: Nihongo sensei-sponsored jdrama viewing?!!! D: D: D: Now I envy you. Would be great to watch as a group, especially with nihongo senseis! Quite a fun learning experience it would be.

@TJ: I only do this during lunch break

Lol I never went as far as to watch anime at work, but I have read manga from time to time.
