    in between calls I lean back in my chair to varying degrees, sometimes I bounce a little.. or roll the chair around on the floor as far as my headset allows.

    at around 3am, after my last cig break.. if it's slow, I tend to break out CNN (it's in the programs favourites list, so technically I'm not breaking company policy because it wouldn't be there if I wasn't allowed use it I'm sure).

    sometimes, it keeps me up nights

    I generally surf the net when things are a bit quiet (like right now). Slagging matches spark up every now and then which are good fun. But when it's busy the day passes so quickly...........

    Thanks,

    I do really like the idea of leaning back in the chair! I must give that a go later! Just hope the chair don;t break!

    I've rather stupidly got a shelf behind me and if I lean back in my chair I bang my head off it.

    I've got ants today... watching them is mildly amusing.

    I forgot to mention, get yourselves some pretty women to walk around the office at regular intervals.

    they might not make the day go by quicker, but they do make work that bit more bearable.

    gentlemen, you have my condolensces.

    there was an asian chick in here the other day in what looked so, so like a one of those anime uniforms I nearly fell over when I walked in the door.

    then a hot canadian chick came in the next day wearing an even shorter skirt.

    I'm waiting for one of them to go all out and just forget to dress

    But you're not morally opposed to girls in short skirts.... the end justifys the means.

    people who are morally opposed to hot women in short skirts aren't really people

    theres always chat to speak to other people without anything to do in work/home. Lots of weirdos tho and watch out ur internet isnt monitored.

    When I used to work in an office and had little to do, the watercooler was a good walk away. You would see me go there several times in the space of a minute :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 209 ✭✭Nightshiftguy


    Any other Ideas.....

    Sorry to bring up an old thread but couldn;t be bothered to start a new one.

    In work i'm bored. nothing to do no customers and just a pc as my friend.
