    It's my experience that pretending being busy is much harder than doing the actual job, however I always prefered doing everything the hard way.

    It does require some work however. The trick is to do it in such a manner nobody notices you doing it. After that it's "appearing busy" all the way.

    What work does it require. I could still be tempted.

    @ Corrupt:

    Now is this so difficult to understand,

    a 50p coin needed to be made for it?

    I'm more worried by the fact we're explaining an event that we're not even competing in.

    If you want to have a cushy job, become a civil servant. Person I know works for Amsterdam Social Services and makes a very good living sitting on a chair, stoned most of the times, and blurring out nonsense...

    Come to think of it, I wouldn't be surprised if he's to be the future mayor...

    American students get shafted. The "International Edition" of many textbooks is exactly the same and cheaper but cannot be sold in the US. Books aren't cheap here but it isn't as bad as the US.
