X2, it depends on the nature of the guys work/profession.. some claim to be working when they're yapping on msn thruout! Household stuff is a thankless job with great expectations.. for "providing" for a family.. the man expects the house to be squeaky clean.. smelling nice.. the kids proper (fed, bathed, changed, done with school-work) the laundry done and in the proper places.. u're fav food made, the childrens food made.. served at the perfect temp too! A wife that's dressed nicely, smelling nice..
In this age computer is used as a primary tool in most fields.
Business
Engineering
Computers
etc
So even If the person is working he/she could be online.
Its not like they put aside there work to come to the desk and log into msn.
