Playing Football Manager on your work lunch?

[Padders]

Any of you crazy enough to play Football Manager while on your lunch at work?

I did it for the first time last week, got myself a few games in.

I only have half an hour lunch as well! RUBBISH

[welshace]

used to play AT work ... the beauty of being left to your own devices providing you get the work done...

way back in school i remember spending half my time doodling down formations and tactics and players to buy etc

[SWaRFeGa]

Lunch? Balls to that. I play throughout. This allows me to reach 2050 during each installment of FM. Couldn't do it otherwise cos I hardly play at home!!

[SRL88]

Take my laptop to work and if I have nothing on I play it then.

Back in the mists of time when I actually had a job, I used to squeeze the occasional bit of FM action in. Didn't like it if I lost, though. Set me up badly for the afternoon's toil.

[Sparkos]

I would be lying if i said i hadn't done this or WORSE.

I've got reams and reams of old notes on players stats. I used to be the Howard Wilkinson of the FM world ;-)

[PGB_SPURS_FM09]

Every day i play it on my hour lunch but since im then alone once I've done that hour i extend it for a cheek half hour. Lets me fit about 4 games in

[donnyuk78]

i dont anymore i did but a hour just not long enough!!

When I am not busy making myself more coffe or eating my lunch, I am playing FM11 on my laptop.

Makes you sound very old.

A group of 6 of us decide to play a LAN game over the uni wireless during a very dull lecture.

I barely have time to eat lunch on my lunch.

I'm a teacher. Playing FM during free periods and lunch break >>>>>>>> marking books and creating lesson plans.

I'm probably not the best example of a hard-working teacher....

[Spireheart]

i do 12 hour night shifts, usually get about 10 matches in on that

Sounds like you have low determination and work rate, but I like your technique!

If your kids knew you did that they would think you were the coolest teacher ever. I know I would...

[Matt ex SEGA]

I have been known to play on my lunch break occasionally...

I remember a few years ago, i used to play FM on my old laptop during work hours(sometimes). I would skip through all the crap, pick the 'magic' diablo tactic and start the game and go back at half time etc, about every 5 mins i would check.........I`m a glass cutter

[Senak]

I get the odd 30 mins of free time every now and then, only problem I have is I share an office and when your team scores that last minute winner it's hard not to punch the air, I've gotten some strange looks!

[Johnny Drama]

if I remember to bring my laptop I do maybe once or twice a week

[Buzzlightyear]

Yes love playing on my lunch... Playing on the train to and from work is always fun ... quite funny when u score 90th min and have to hold the celebration in

[Marcussy]

Haha - indeed.

Sounds like you have low determination and work rate, but I like your technique!

Haha - sounds like a good description to me.

If your kids knew you did that they would think you were the coolest teacher ever. I know I would...

Although I would like to think so, not quite. They're more the COD/Fifa/Pro types. I once mentioned FM in class and was met with silence. I'm glad you would though!

[Dr. Hook]

I have to keep office hours during the week, and students rarely come in, so I get several hours of FMing while at work. I'm not complaining!
