Online Video at Work: Here's What You're Watching [INFOGRAPHIC]

Is "Hey, it's for work!" the new "I read it for the articles"?

According to this infographic, based on data from Harris Interactive, lots of us are watching online videos at work -- and a good deal of them aren't work-related.

The 3% who are watching porn probably isn't surprising (and is most likely under-reported), but 4% are watching feature films? As Jerry Seinfeld might ask, "Who are these people?"

For some jobs, like midnight shift toll collector, this may be fine, but in most cases, it appears that people are hiding their work-time viewing. If you're in the same boat, you might find some good tips here, like pretending to tie your shoe, putting your smartphone under the table and that old standby, going to the bathroom. Come to think of it, the latter might explain these recent stats.
