The Test: Part 2

Hours passed and I kept on with the same routine I do every day. About a 50/50 split of work and rest time. Okay, it was more like 10% work and 90% rest split. To be honest with you, I could have done nothing all day and got away with it - no one was checking up on me.

That fact was a little disconcerting, because if something were to happen to me, chances are no one was making a rescue. For instance, if I came down with a fatal case of Carpel Tunnel Syndrome via excess Internet surfing, someone would find me the next morning in an uncompromising situation. Whomever discovered me would see me on the floor, grasping my wrist, with multiple Internet windows opened (opened to sports, entertainment, and whatever websites I was reading at that moment), multiple computer games (Solitaire, FreeCell, Minesweeper, AND Internet Checkers, and not a single work document along the bottom scroll.
