My forgejo is not down!

However, at work we use GitHub, and now I can’t deploy.

Time for sword fighting with rulers in the hallway.

I work from home. My wife is not impressed by my boredom.

Time for making out on the couch instead then!

This raises a question I've always wondered about: in the most technical sense, does having sex during working hours (meaning while you're being paid) make you a prostitute?

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No, you’re not getting paid to have sex, you’re getting paid during sex. 

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I mean, arguably, that's what sex workers say, too. That you're paying for their time and that anything that happens is a choice between two consenting adults. They're getting paid for their time and sometimes sex just happens during that time.

Only when you're talking to a cop.

Boss gets a dollar, I get a dime
That's why I bang my wife on company time
