It's the weekend, apparently we don't slow down on the posts anymore.

IT doesn't cease to exist because you are not at work!
Or, when I'm at home or out with the family, it's just way too easy to check your notifications or unread posts on your cell phone. Literally takes only as long as it does to unlock phone, open browser, refresh page... 5-10 seconds?
I like to keep up with things, and my profession, learning in the process. ML tracking helps with that. I read all threads. Just because I don't reply to most of them doesn't mean im not reading and learning through them. I'm sure I speak for others as well!
-
If I only limit myself to my 8-10 hours at work, focusing only on work, Monday to Friday, I wouldn't know anything! Exaggerating a little, but you get my point. If you want to maintain a career in IT you need to live and breathe it... I has to be a passion imho.

I worked on updating servers all weekend.
so I had to be in front of my computer, therefore on ML. -
This whole month the posting rate has been a bit higher.
-
@Tim_G I do the same thing. I can't stay away for long.
-
Been with the kids, so only sporadic checking in. Sitting down watching the Grammy awards for a bit and drinking a beer before I go do some work.
Server updates and such.

Seriously, gonna just have to "mark all read" if you all keep this up.
I have to do that every so often.

I never do but sometimes it's a full day trying to catch up.

Yesterday was busy for a Sunday and Saturday was quite busy. But it was nothing like a normal day.

Tell me about it. I've been trying to catch up since last Thursday!
-
And it just gets busier.
-
Sounds like I'm outside the norm. I try to disconnect from IT and work as much as possible over the weekends.

I do the same thing. Weekends are unplug time.
-
Weekends are the time to catch up on work!

I never am not working... Went to a gig on Saturday night (Art did sound so was there early). I worked for like 3 hours in the bar. Apparently I can get a lot done where it is super loud and crazy. Or maybe it was the Vodka I was drinking (goes back to re-read everything I did Saturday night).

Oh me to normally. I think that the new post notice either falls off, or is somehow otherwise lost when I come in on Mondays, normally there are only about 20-30 posts to catch up on.
I missed a ton of stuff while traveling last year because the notices fell away somehow.
-
Notices only go back so far.
-
I generally check ML when I'm hanging out with people. Beats face-to-face interaction.
