the "i work but still play AM" thread

[ALFC]

hi, lets gather, people who are no longer in school etc and dont have hours and hours to waste on am, yet still play!
how do all you "working people" manage? i am sure that our playingstyle is very different to the percieved majority of "minors or students who dont have to manage their time efficiently"

i am usually checking into am once or twice during work, to order new planes, besides that i am usually limited to "15-20 minutes of putting new planes on a route" in the moring and maybe 45 minutes of whatever makes sense in the evening.
i also have the AM chat open when at work and visit it(and the forum) every now and then!

my work is on the net from home. Which means I am glued to the laptop for 10-12 hours anyway. I usually give myself 5-10 minute breaks and then check on the airline with 3x 30 minutes a day. This is when I do not have to wait for my programmer to finish his job. Because if that is the case I have oceans of time.

Apart from that I play comedy in a Thai comedygroup in the evenings and play in tv shows and movies every now and then.

I have a job at AMS  

During work I usually check AM once or twice a day, when I have time for it. At work, I only adjust my routes and don't open any new routes (takes too much time).

I check in to AM a couple of times during my work day, I sit behind a darn conputer for 10 hours at work, and when I get home I sit behind another one for leisure as well, lol

Sometimes I edit some routes, sometimes I add a couple of new ones, but my main AM time is an "edit route frenzy" 6.00 in the morning (Sorry DAK ) while eating breakfast, and a 30-45 minutes of creating routes  just before bedtime.
My bosses pay me big bucks to work, not play AM, those buggers

I'm going to be flogged for it, but I'm still a student. Barely. I'm about to graduate college, and I work full time at a large GA airport. I work more than I go to school. but anyway, I check on this at work 2 - 3 times a day. But it depends on the weather too. Like if its stormy or icy or something, and no one flies, I waste a lot of time toying with my routes and aircraft.

AM is blocked at work for me....

So I get on when I have a chance...  In the evenings when I am answering e-mails for my business, or moderating one of the forums, or when I need a break from writing technical articles.....

not really "working"...a graduate student.  i log in for maybe an hour each evening to do the plane and routes things.  though the more routes i have, the more time it's taking to modify them.  but that's about it.  good thing most planes arrive in multiples of 24 "days" so if i log in at about the same time each night, they're all waiting.

I have my own computer at school and I'm on AM basically all day.

I'm a senior this year and I have almost all of my core classes completed so most of my classes are electives that I do nothing in.  Today I ate at school 4 times because of my elective classes.  The rest of the time we do nothing and so AM comes up.
