The Internet is Your Dream Boyfriend

After a recent chat with CC Editor Alex, we came to the conclusion that the Internet is basically the ideal man. Before you think we’re crazy, hear us out! We were talking about how amazingly useful the Internet is, just like a good BF is meant to be. And I know this is a “no duh!” kind of statement, but it’s true! We continued talking about how the Internet is the ultimate boyfriend and actually thought there might be something to this crazy concept. It’s (he’s) filled with everything and anything you could ever possibly want. It’s the ultimate tool for life! It (he) never talks back, it (he) doesn’t judge you and your Google searches, it (he) lets you vent and write in an online diary and those secrets are always kept safe!

If you are unable to come up with a solid number to answer this question (because the number of times has been so great), you may be what is commonly known as a “Cyberslacker”.

Don’t panic!

According to Trendhunter.com, a recent survey done by Salary.com concluded that 6 out of every 10 workers openly admits to wasting time at work. The same survey indicates that 34% of these people use the Internet as their main tool to procrastinate.

Although we’re not holed up in cubicles just yet, college students face this very same challenge on a daily basis.

How do you buckle down and get that paper written without straying to good old Facebook to see who changed their interests in the last 6 minutes?

If you’re a student, build up some self-discipline. If you are heading out into the workforce, however, you may not need to change your procrastinating ways.
