My parents lied to me about what exactly? I think that employers have the right to moniter ALL activity at all times on all company owned computers and make any judgements they want about how employees can use them.

Flame responses

bbro, so you regularly spend hours at work doing nothing productive then? Working 60% for your 100% salary there? If you regularly find yourself with no work to do then that's a pretty bad sign, take some initiative man.

I am in my sophmore year at university, however, I'm putting in more hours a week than 90% of full time workers. I have 25 hours of actual class per week and I have about 15-20 hours of assignments and studying on top of that. I also work 4-5 hours a week at UPMC (google it) in the Renal-Electrolyte department on a clinical study on the cognition of patients in end stage renal failure. By the time I 'get out in the workplace' I'll be almost 30 (two more years of undergrad then I'm applying to a 6 year M.D/Ph.D program here). Don't patronize me.

Oh, and Shawnee, the feeling is mutual
