TO AVOID BEING CAUGHT "WASTING TIME" ONLINE AT WORK
1. Use the [Alt + Tab] keys, commonly known as toggling.
This allows you
to switch from one opened application to another very
quickly. 2. Use a glare screen. The screen prevents passerby (your boss) from viewing what's on your screen. 3. Position your desk/computer so that only you can see what's on the screen. 4. Anonymizer.com: A Web site that provides ways to surf without leaving a Web tail. 5. Delete or erase Internet history/cache files/cookies. 6. Minimize: Have applications minimized at the bottom of your screen to have ready to switch to in case someone comes by. 7. Use a Hotmail or alternate personal e-mail account. 8. Delete old e-mails. 9. Surf sites like: Ishouldbeworking.com, it features a "Boss is coming" button that takes you directly to a financial news site. 10. Make sure your screensaver is set on a low timer so that if you leave your desk and you're surfing, your screen saver will conceal your Internet use.
