Are you ever tempted to just start playing games half way through work? #gaming #retrogaming #retrocomputing
@gpowerf If work is quiet I do... I then pay back the time when shit hits the fan... Swings and roundabouts and the benefits of hybrid working.
@solarisfire at lunchtime I get a quick game in :) back in the office days we had an arcade machine with a Pandora's Box in it. That was fun!
@gpowerf I used to work in first-line monitoring of a very stable IT platform. I'd drag a gaming laptop to the office and game on 12-hour night shifts with all my monitoring screens on other displays. If something broke I'd instantly pause the game and start working on it... If I didn't have something to hold my focus and keep me awake I'd have actually done a worse job 😅
@solarisfire oh cool :) A Steam Deck would be ideal too. :D
@solarisfire it is really cool :) you won't regret it.
@gpowerf It would now! This was way before Steam Decks! I'm still trying to persuade my other half to let me get one...
