do you find it difficult to restrain yourself from putting inappropriate NSFW material as their wallpaper when they aren't looking?

Bullfrog

no nothing like that just this guys hard drive is dying and he tells me hes going on vacation for 2 weeks but hes taking his laptop. I restrained from asking him when the F#$% he wanted me to work on it then?

and of course instead of storing documents on the server that get backed up he uses his e-mail as a filing system...


Vacations are for relaxing people!!!
