Who among you here is gambling at work?

[nullama]

Gambling while working is indeed a common thing among office workers. because they think when they have free time instead of just scrolling social media that does not produce anything they start switching to gambling sites.
But keep in mind, because it is only for leisure time, as you said. never set a winning target. even if you get a little winnings it is more than enough when compared to the time wasted if you only use free time to play social media.

You could theoretically also use that time to actually do some leisure work and get paid a bit extra on the side.

Gambling on the other hand is most probably going to reduce your amount of money in the long term.

Overall I'm sure there must be people who do gambling activities at work, one of the scenarios maybe they feel that the work is done but the time is still not showing the time to go home so with that maybe they will take advantage of that time to try their luck, on the other hand I understand that in this scenario your work is done but I think it would be better if you don't do other activities and it's better to use that time to rest without doing other activities. especially in general gambling has a bad view in the eyes of society and the worry is that your boss may find out about your gambling activities during working hours. especially in general gambling has a bad point of view in the eyes of society and the worry is that your boss may find out about your gambling activities during working hours, of course it will be a new problem that should not happen and maybe your boss is one of those people who hates gambling and finally there is absolutely no tolerance for the mistakes you make and in the end the possibility of losing your job could happen to you. Therefore, of course we must be someone who is responsible for whatever we do, one of which is by being able to divide each time according to the schedule of daily activities that you have.

Moreover, people who gamble at any time and in any place are more likely to be addicted. or beginners who are so interested in playing at the casino that they forget the time and place.
This is not a matter of profit or loss, but perhaps more about the work ethics and integrity of an employee. because it is unethical for an employee to do something else while he is still at work. whether they are busy at work or relaxing, employees are not paid to do other pleasures that are not related to their work.

Gambling is something of luck and we can stand to conclude of gambling risks and diverting your time you use for gambling for anything else, I know quite well that gambling have to do with different risk measures, if you have the momentum to gamble then gamble because that particular day you gamble might be your good time to gamble with goodluck and other things I know very well, so what I'm saying is that anyone who brings out its time to gamble so we should not look at like that.

[TimtheYoutuber]

Sometimes I would gamble before work because some baseball would start before it. Either made the day really fun, or bad. So I stopped because there is no point going into work mad because of a bet.

Yes because of that adrenaline, you want to keep playing and you want to continue that desire, it's really annoying when you need to go back to work when you are already enjoying the game, or if you are losing and you wanted to cope with the money, things that will risk your job when you gamble during the time of your work.

It's better to seperate your time with your work to avoid this kind of emotion that may lead you to gambling addiction.

If it's because of adrenaline, we still want to continue gambling while we still have to work and have to choose what we should do. But if we are working, we should not gamble but should really work well because we get a salary from our workplace. We must not waste the opportunity to work at our workplace because there are many people out there who are still looking for work and really hope to be accepted for work. Meanwhile, we have worked and earned a salary, so we have to use it seriously.

Yes, we have to be able to work professionally, especially if we work in a team with other people. If they find out that we are gambling, it will definitely be troublesome because in the workplace, there are definitely people who don't like us, and that is a normal thing that happens in many workplaces. Don't let us get into trouble just because we play gambling, which is not appropriate to do at work.

Actually I can remember a time of gambling in work quite a while ago.   In the dot com boom of 2000 there was alot of websites tracking the markets trying to raise traffic and giving out free bets for regular visitors.  Before BTC came along the most similar 'small' transaction was micro advertising revenue that was the life blood of quite a few small sites and operations, really not a currency but the closest thing to online digital revenue or flow of value was that bit of advertising.   Anyhow me and a couple people would spend time to enter the free bets and contests while waiting at any point in the office, not proper gambling because you cant spend more then a minute but officially not allowed either.   Im sure quite a few people spend time doing similar, the problem I would state with some gambling is that it cant be paused hence is disruptive to work be cautious.

Like what I mentioned,  it's better to separate your gambling activities to your work schedule,  if you don't want to create any messed with your job, you should take all the responsibilities and complete what you are being paid for, the leisure should  be separated as it should be done outside your workplace,  being professional is also  being responsible,  else, you will both messing with your financial source and your potential gambling addiction.

When it comes to gambling then it should really be done on the right time and on the right place because if you would really be doing gambling on your work then you are really that having the possibilities
that you might be losing your work because of perfomance and efficiency kind like of issues on which it cant really be avoided specially that someone do really sees on the things that you've been doing.
It cant really be just be avoided that you would really be facing up some issues on the time that you would really be doing gambling in your work. Just like on the rest been saying that
that there would really be an exact right time for you to play and  there is the right time for you to do work. Both things cant really be done at the same time, you are putting up yourself on such risks.

Yeah, it doesn't really help that much.

When you start your day in negative and then go to work just to break even, or sometimes even worse.

It's not a nice life to live really.

Yes, indeed the risks are imminent and you cannot ignore the things that can be done to achieve better performance, I have always started from something, work is sacred, you should not invent or try to do something else that is not contemplated in the things that must be done within that time range, because it is as you say, if a person starts playing in a casino During work hours , if they see him on the cameras it is very possible that they will give him a call of attention and obviously it is a shame that it happens like this, because things cannot be taken that way, if someone is discovered and they are called to attention, I think that a second call is no longer possible because that could mean a dismissal and that if eqeu It is serious, the work we do must be impeccable , it must be done with a great amount of conscience and can generate many things such as contributing to the company for which we are working, that is why we are always going to be there pending. not to do the wrong things.


I don't know how some people can risk their jobs by playing, because it is something that is not in me, plus I see that as a lack of respect for the company and for oneself as a professional and that is something that has to be seen as something that It should not be done, those who do it should do it during their off hours, there is nothing else that can be discussed, because risking your job just like that, I think it is not worth it, if you are not satisfied with the job. that you have, well it's easy, you quit and that's it, this is how you should fix everything, not by going through hardships and putting several bad things in your job, that can Damage the reputation of anyone working in companies, things don't They can be taken that way, therefore when we are at work we must do everything possible to comply with what we must do and with what the company demands.

In their free time, workers are sure to be confused about what they want to do because their work is finished, but for those who like to gamble, they may use their free time to gamble and in their minds that's okay as long as their superiors don't know about it, but sometimes what do you do doing it doesn't always remain safe. There are times when other people know what you do in your free time so that your boss knows that your time is not fully used for work and there is a big possibility that you will be fired from your job because you are not disciplined.

This is what gamblers who have jobs must learn because life is not always about gambling, apart from gambling we also need food and when we lose our jobs how can we find food? and how can you gamble?? Therefore, it is better to use your free time at work to keep doing your work and not let it happen because gambling can make you lose your job and gamble at home outside of work, this will not cause problems for yourself.

Our bosses not only hire you for your expertise, they also are entitled to part of your time as an employee, so even if you are an excellent employee and you have finished everything you had to do, this is not really an excuse to gamble on your job.

You could get away with chatting with your peers or checking your social media for updates, but gambling is something that is going to leave a negative impression no matter what, so people should just play it safe if they do not want to lose their job and gamble once they get home.

Of course we have to keep working and discipline our time to continue working without thinking about gambling in our free time, we are hired as employees to carry out work so we can't just do what we want like bosses who gamble in their free time. It's the same like taking your work for granted while you are still working, we have to keep ourselves busy working so that our boss will think that we are doing our job well and not making any mistakes that make our work difficult.

Yes, it's true that the most important thing is that we don't make a negative impression, whether chatting with friends or reading a book, it won't leave a negative impression, so please do whatever you want as long as you don't gamble at work, gambling after you get home will make you calmer and being able to enjoy your gambling rights can also be your comfort when you are tired from working all day.

Well, some people have this kind of mindset that if ever that we already build the trust and good impression in a company, our leaders will think that we are effective and efficient employee that no needs to supervise every time, in that way, we can do whatever we wants as long as you comply the needs and assigned task to you and they don't know that you're doing something illegal during working hours. We have different views when it comes to working, just focus on our own technique on how to do things that won't get caught and even more so, no one else should know this because they can report it to the higher management.

No one among me here. I'm from an lower muddle class family of Bangladesh and those Bangladeshi here they know the family condition and the financial status of a family of here. Parents don't want that their son don't do anything without study becose they are tensed with our future. I came here my self my friend who gambling he told me about it but you can say that he among me here but thinking theses all are mine he just told me about it. I have made all work my own.

[Julien_Olynpic]

I work largely for myself and I can even afford to play during working hours. But you need to understand that working time is valuable enough to waste on trifles. For me to want to gamble at work, I either have to be inspired or I have to have stress that I would want to deal with through gambling. This is possible, but I rarely do it. I practically don’t play for money at all; I prefer free games. They are no less interesting. And the money you bet in the game often only interferes with your enjoyment of the game. After all, you no longer think about the game, but about winning.

[Betwrong]

Yep, although some people think that they can earn money regularly through gambling, in fact gambling is about leisure, as you rightly said, and it's very stupid to think that you really can earn some good money from this activity. We earn money from our job and it's not worth it to risk losing your job because of doing something for our entertainment like gambling.

I think it is the dream of a gambler to be able to win big and quit their jobs.

That's why they keep gambling, to try and beat the odds and stop their work.

But in the end it's probably worse because they might end up losing their job.

That is so only for those who hate their jobs and do it only for money. Don't forget that there are millions of those who love their job and they wouldn't quit it even if they won enough money to do nothing through the rest of their lives. But such people wouldn't be gambling at work, in the first place. I mean, during the working hours. They could place a bet during a coffee break though.

[mirakal]

I prefer free games. They are no less interesting. And the money you bet in the game often only interferes with your enjoyment of the game. After all, you no longer think about the game, but about winning.

Seriously? Do you still get the entertainment playing free games? I mean, we are gamblers here, so the more we risk, as long as it's within our budget, the more we will have fun. I myself have a business as well, I work on it like I'm also a worker, but I can always find a time to gamble. Since I'm into sports betting, it doesn't require me a lot of time, so I could just using maybe a maximum of one hour to put all my bets, then I'll just wait for the outcome, watching the game is not necessary anymore as that will only destruct me on what I'm doing, final score is enough for me, or I will just check my balance, if it increases, that means I won my bets.

I think it's better to have a clear cut between gambling time and working time. Especially when you are your own boss or work from home without any supervision I don't trust myself with gambling during working hours. In the office the risk is just too high that a colleague would see it and alarms my boss, ending in me getting a serious talk and getting more supervised in the future. I would also not make a difference between gambling for money or with playmoney, it both requires time and will take concentration away from our job. In the end everybody has to decide for themselves if he wants to gamble at work or not, and it also depends on how demanding your job it. For me the risks of negative consequences are too high and I prefer to play it safe.

[TopTort777]

Well, we arent paid at work to gamble But if I am not mistaken, employees have right for a lunch break and have 5-10min pauses during work (impossible to stare into monitor for 8 straight hours). Would it be bad to use 5min of free time to gamble using own mobile? Seems not. I can go take a dump and play. Technically I am at work. Should that bother my boss ? Only if I do it for 20-30minutes However, gambling at work is more stressful. Not because gamblers are afraid to get spotted, but because other might distract them.

Imagine gambling at work as a creative break. Turning a vice into a mental instrument is the goal. Imagine a quick, powerful, and energizing mental espresso shot.

The catch: discipline. Like a tightrope, one mistake can lead to unproductivity. The "how" and "when" are key. Time constraints must be strictly enforced. Be the game's master, not its servant.

Finally, context matters. Without colleagues, the temptation is higher and the duty completely ours in a home office. Being your own watchful supervisor requires self-control. I encourage the occasional wager to spice up the working, but walk carefully, play strategically, and work hard.
