watching out for the boss

I was watching the Marquette/Syracuse game on my laptop on Sunday evening, and my wife noticed the "BOSS BUTTON" in the upper right.

This is something that has come about because most workplaces have internet access, and sometimes big sporting events are on during the work day.  Since IT managers can't block the whole internet, you can oftentimes watch live sporting events on your computer.

If you can hear your boss coming while you're watching the game, you need to quickly press the "BOSS BUTTON" which can quickly make it look like you're working hard.

The "BOSS BUTTON" is in the upper right
When you click the button, your screen is transformed into an email that you can pretend you were writing.


After the NCAA Tournament, the next big online event will be the Master's golf tournament in early April.
