Default First thing in the morning

Okay so I got to work at some ungodly time this morning...and I turn my computer on...Do I go into my accounting programs, do I go into my office email, or do I go to the internet first?

Of course, I go to the Internet, to my personal email, then a swimming site, then I come here. I have my priorities straight..

So what is the first place you go to, once the office computer is on?

Yes, I am bored...hence the question.

Company email first, then instant messengers, then personal email and the internet. I do some work occasionally during the day.

Don't use a computer at work, but this is one of the first places I go in the morning before I work out!!

HA to all you guys working in an office! HA! I get up and head to the gym, cause I work at the gym! IF I have a client-free few minutes, I'll check out the forum from the fitness office, but usually I have to wait until I get home. BUT I'm still AT THE GYM and you're not!

Lisa, you forgot the "nyah, nyah, nyah" at the end of that.

I usually have about 10 minutes or so before work to get coffee and check a few sites quickly. Usually the order is insulators.com first to see if anyone has something good for sale (yeah, I'm an obsessed collector type), then vtec.net to see if there are any interesting car news stories, then here. When 8:00 rolls around, I have to work.

Uni email, hotmail, jp fitness, precision nutrition, t-nation. I do this pretty much everytime i get back to my computer.

Maybe 10times a day. I don't actually expect new articles or emails but its habit.

First it's email, then iManager for all of my sites, then a few specialty tools, then a browser. I have a few tabs that open automatically.
