What home office workers are actually doing:

    Amen. Actually, I spent more time telling my dog to stop licking the screen than petting him when I was at home.

    I stumbled on this page while laying on the couch, listening to mp3’s off my laptop, with a small dog on my chest.

    what..? what do you mean shopped? they’re just random photos that people took… there’s nothing odd, quirky, or out of place to be spotted in the photos. what the heck would they need to shop anything for? please, for the sake of every human that has to lay eyes on your comments, PLEASE use some common sense…
