I hate this site. It makes it impossible to get work done :(
That reminds me of:
In 2004 I was in new york and I said to a very dear friend of mine that I have there: "Hey man, I have to sue my jacket!" (meaning "I have to sew my jacket", bad pronunciation, right?)... And he replied to me... Well... In the US you can preety much sue anythig...
What are you talking about Erik? You have a *very* generous employer. 1 month + 9 days of vacation?!? That's 40 total days of paid time off! Although I think it is slightly petty to have the employer track vacation days by the second. But still 40 days...
Ooooh... or is the vacation function solely for active chess games and not for work? And you end up going to washington park on your vacation to play chess? ok, yeah... i think a lawsuit is in order. The case of Erik vs Erik. hopefully, it is as riveting as kramer vs kramer.
It's terrible!!! My work has seriously taken a hit since joining this site. When I'm not playing chess on the site at work, I'm thinking about it. And when i'm not doing either of these - I'm farting about in the forums!!!!
On the plus side, my chess.com rating is improving. :-)
Jkor.... you sure you aren't American??
Probably too much cable television.
well i love chess and i consider it an art so i love coming on this website and it hasnt done anything bad to my grades and i love this website
not quite a livelihood yet, but yes, it is my job. and no, i didn't lose interest, i am TOO interesed. it was a tongue-in-cheek comment.
