Posted June 14, 2017 I can't help but notice the amount of people grinding away while at work and I was wondering about all the different ways to stash and hide your Wurm install directory. Do you bring it on pendrives, hide the folder under 20 others, rename the shortcut to something "worky"? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2017 I have a pendrive with Ubuntu installed, booting from it I can play Wurm almost from any computer if "needed" 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 14, 2017 I tried with virtual box and through VPN from virtual machine, but graphic card at work is poor (everything goes black in wurm after some period) and haven't found good free VPN that is using 443 so gave up, just not worth loosing my job:). It works tho. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 14, 2017 Reminds me of a girl who used to play maple at work all day. She had fully automated her job without her employer realising. She only told them after she retired XD 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He sat in his office all day doing whatever he wanted, earning $100k, paying someone in India $20k to do his job for him. Plenty of time for Wurm then 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 14, 2017 (edited) The key to things is to have a passive income so you have all your time to do whatever you want. If you don't have a passive income you should be speeding your time getting that set up first Edited June 14, 2017 by Kegan 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 14, 2017 I forget which game it was but I remember when I was younger, there used to be a "boss" key. If your boss was walking by, you'd hit that button, it would pause the game and put a fake spreadsheet on the screen It was actually a guy that worked with my father that showed it to me, my father was not amused lol.

Totally sane, right? 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2017 I am not playing Wurm, I am debugging it. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2017 I don't Wurm during work, fun as it sounds I lead by example and prefer to work along side my employees. I will not ask someone to do something I can't or won't do myself. I was always brought up to separate work time and personal time. Call me old-school. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2017 (edited) The thought has crossed my mind a few times, but I have way too much to lose by taking such risks. Edited June 14, 2017 by solmark 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 14, 2017 Splashtop from my phone to get it started, since it uses native drivers. Once it is running I move to my workstation and RDP using port 10000. Run it in a 1024x768 window. Mainly just for grinding out mats. If I have to move around too much the RDP sucks so I have to jump back on splashtop from the phone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2017 I don't, I play it. Some jobs are little more difficult I guess though with such things. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2017 Maybe i'm just old school but my boss(es) are paying me to do work, not play video games. I know i'm the idiot, though. I'm the one working while everyone else on the payroll is dicking around on their cellphones all day. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2017 I did play a bit at my old job on weekends, or during holidays (with my director's complete knowledge and permission) when I was basically just babysitting and making sure no one burned the campus down. But in my new job, no way, too much to lose. We're not even supposed to have non work laptops in the building. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
