It is that simple.
Mansized - You can also be human and have distractions/temptations. That's what this thread is about not whether it's professional or not to give in to them. Not everyone is a robot.

I used going out as an example for me. Besides, I do allow myself an hour lunch break and that's when I typically leave. A former colleague used to get hooked on MSNBC and could disappear for bit. Others had daytime TV issues. The work always got done, but there were always temptation or disctractions.
