    For me it was so-so, could have a month of being constantly busy and a then a month of surfing the net 9-5. Basically, if they had nothing for me to do they just told me to go online. It was pretty sweet actually.

    Have to say i was pretty damn busy when i was on coop. Left a few projects behind me that i just didnt have time to finish.

    Anyways sitting on your ass getting experience(on CV that is) and getting paid for it. I belive thats the student dream

    i suppose it depends on where u're working. coop is a real eye-opener for what to do after college anyway!

    I'm working in the office right now. From this, one can deduct that I'm not too busy at all...

    Meh, co-op gives you an idea of what NOT to do. Thats not to say i dont like my job, i quite like it, but only for 8 months, not for 40 years.

    I do a fair bit of work, but some days it busy out (like today!) and some days it not

    Nukem, the student dream is a free supply of beer!

    The dream is earning lots of money for doing nothing!!

    I'm pretty similiar, I'm on off being annoyingly busy and doing absolutely sweet **** all. I've brought my DS in some days, because I've had so little to do; most the internet is blocked out.

    Tomorrow, I'll be busy. I have to go work down on the manufacturing floor upgrading computers.

    I ****ing hate working for Dell now -_- At least my manager is sound, and a few people I work with.
