Curious as to how many of y'all work from home, are stay at home parents, are a student, retired or Fluther from work?

Asked by Jude (32207points) May 18th, 2011

I tend to see the same crew throughout the day, so, I was just wondering. :)

I sneak on at work.

I Fluther mostly while at work. Keeps me occupied while on the phone with customers. I’ll sometimes Fluther while taking a bubble bath or watching a mindless TV show.

I’m just a bum.

I took a hiatus from work when I was really having a hard time emotionally, and that hiatus never ended. I pretty much never leave my house, and there is only so much that I can clean, so I end up spending a lot of time online. Pretty much.

I am on disability, so I play on Fluther from home.

I don’t have a formal occupation I’ve basically taken over my friend’s housekeeping/landscaping/cleaning/animal care business for her while she is in Texas for the summer, and I’m out of school at the moment, so I just Fluther whenever my fingers involuntarily and automatically start to type an “F” in my firefox search bar.

I’m a freelance screenwriter from home, but will hopefully be coaching volleyball this summer.

I’m Florking, Fluthering at work.

JilltheTooth's avatar

I’m like Neffie, I’m a bum, only I’m old enough to say I’m retired. And I Fluther instead of cleaning anything.

At home mom. Plus a bunch of non-paid volunteer side jobs.

Simone_De_Beauvoir's avatar

I work full time. Fluther allows for a break in a day full of pain and chaos in the lives of my patients.

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

I’m a bum also, I just claim I’m working. So I guess I’m a psuedoflorker.

At home caregiver.

LuckyGuy's avatar

I spend half my time in the home office and the other half at the labs or whatever.
I only Flork from the home IP address.
I’m home today.

Grad student. I Fluther when I need a break from writing or grading.

That seems to be quite often…

I guess I fall into the bum category; a bum who will need to go back to work in the not too distant future. I quit my job to look after my dad but he’s since passed away and I just haven’t gone back to work yet. So I guess I bluther, I fluther while being a bum, well, when I’m not blathering, that is.

tinyfaery's avatar

I only work a few days a week (now) and even then it’s during the night.

JLeslie's avatar

I haven’t worked in about a year and a half, so I guess I am just a housewife right now.

wundayatta's avatar

Neither a florker nor a florkee be.

I am, ahem, working very hard every day to justify the medium-sized salary they pay me. I have no ambition, and no clients most of the time, so I fluth. I am a lucky boy. Some people might be outraged, but hey, lets just say my employer is subsidizing my attempts to reduce the quality of the website.

No. I’m kidding. Really, I work very hard. Really.

etignotasanimum's avatar

I’m a student as well. Seeing as I would use this site as a means of procrastination during the school year, I imagine that I’ll be on with increasing frequency as the occasional periods of boredom during summer break kick in. I say that enthusiastically, really. :)

marinelife's avatar

I work from home.

YARNLADY's avatar

It’s all in my profile.

tedibear's avatar

I used to be a florker. Now, I fluther after work and on weekends. This makes me a free-time flutherer.

SAHHSFM Stay at home homeschooling Fluthering mom

KateTheGreat's avatar

I am a student, but I am on leave for the summer. I’m on Fluther all of the time now!

downtide's avatar

I don’t work the same days each week so I do get a few midweek days when I’m at home. Also being in the UK, my evening Fluther time is afternoon over the pond. No internet at work for me.

aprilsimnel's avatar

I Fluther strictly from home, so when I have a gig, I am not Fluthering on the job.

Seaofclouds's avatar

I’m a stay at home mom right now. Since we moved when I was 6 months pregnant, there didn’t seem to be much point in looking for a new job when I’d be going on maternity leave within a few weeks or so. I plan to go back to work (as a nurse) once the baby is here and I’m cleared by the doctor to do so.

Brian1946's avatar

I’m retired and I do about 99% of my Fluthering (Flomering?) from home.

When (March 16, 2002) I first joined a socially-interactive web site I worked for AT&T, and I did all my posting from work before I got my own computer.

AmWiser's avatar

Retired but insist on going somewhere practically everyday for something or another. Hey this is cool! I’m a Flyther since I fly in and out during the day.

casheroo's avatar

I’m a stay at home mother. I work very very part time (10 hours a week)

tranquilsea's avatar

I home school and take care of my sister. In between answering questions and crowd control I pop on and pop off.

BarnacleBill's avatar

I’m only on at night or in the morning before work. Site is blocked at work. So is FB.

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

I’m a stay home mom. But I am seriously thinking about finding something to make at home that I can sell on Etsy for a little extra income.

Facade's avatar

I’m a student taking a break from school who doesn’t work. So yea, I’m always here…
And I’ve been thinking the same thing as @WillWorkForChocolate, but I’m not crafty enough. Hope you find something to make @WillWorkForChocolate !

MissAnthrope's avatar

I would love to work from home f’serious, but I probably couldn’t because I’d be on Fluther all day.

I have one job 40 hours a week outside my house and two jobs I do at home when I’m not working the main job. I Fluther way more than I ought to, probably. I know I use Fluther to procrastinate doing work-at-home on my days off. :P

Mariah's avatar

I am a student on a temporary leave of absence (read: home with nothing to do except fluther).

Haleth's avatar

I just have horrible time management skills. I’m too much of a wimp to risk fluthering from work, so I mostly just sit there clicking over the same old invoices and secret shopper reports and stuff. When I get home I stay up way too late on the internet, no matter how early I have to get up in the morning.

Bellatrix's avatar

I rarely fluther at work. I do occasionally pop on during my lunch but mostly I fluther from home while watching TV or doing other things on my computer.

augustlan's avatar

I work from home and I fluther at work because fluther is my work. I don’t know if I could stand to have a different job at this point. The withdrawal would be horrible!

Bellatrix's avatar

You are so lucky @augustlan. :-)

augustlan's avatar

I know it. I’m eternally grateful for it, too. You guys are the best.

DominicX's avatar

I’m a student, I Fluther when I have free time, when I’m slacking off, and occasionally during class :)
