How long do you think I can go without doing anything before getting fired?

[MagnusTheBrewer]

I've never been able to understand how some people can just sit or stand around. I get bored as hell. I'd rather find work to occupy myself than sit around and talk about how bored I am. While there are no end of craptastic employers and jobs, when I go to work I work. When I'm at work, I have no compunction against literally slapping someone in the back of the head if they're standing/sitting around doing nothing. Get to work ya lazy ass!

You sound like a real straight shooter. I think you've got upper management material written all over you.

I've been in that spot for the last 40 years and counting.

Many years ago, I had a job doing technical research. I had to search through tens of thousands of pages of documents and try and find certain technical references. Well, being the geekie type of guy I am, I stayed late one evening, and ran all the pages through a scanner and then processed it through an OCR program. No, they never thought of this as OCR programs were sort of new and not well received. Anyway, after having all this inforamtion in the computer, finding all the technical references took about an hour. The time limit on the job was listed: Until done. Well, what should I have done? Billed them 6 hours of actual time spent? Or estimated how much time it would have taken me had I done it their way, page by page. Well, to avoid getting flames, I won't divurge how much time I actually billed, but it was two of the best years I have ever had.

The kicker?! Because I did such a thorough job the first time, they hired me again to re-research the same documents looking now for other references. LOL

Dude, get another job! Seriously, there has to be something else that drives you a little more ... life's too short to waste away.

Well, he's getting paid for doing nothing... I think that works pretty well. I assume from the way he puts his words in the OP that he is planning to get a new job.

It's only cool for so long

Even AT gets boring when all you do is hit F5 8 hours a day...

sad, but true

See, these are the people that make the rest of your lives possible. You should be thanking him!

It can go on for years.

 

[SAWYER]

Let me have your job, I'm tired of manual labor.

 

[jonks]

8 years

You guys keep saying it'll go on for a while, but I'm being completely literal when I say I've done nothing. Someone is going to notice that absolutely nothing is getting done eventually.

You're stealing. Congratulations! I don't know whether it's your smugness about it, or the complicit attitudes of the other degenerates in this thread bother me more.

Seriously do this country a favor and kill yourselves. You're dead weight.

You'll get promoted and replace your worthless boss who's never in the office.

This Sphnix person makes some impacting posts, rare as they are. I am entertained.

You are on AT in the middle of the day in the middle of the week.

I hope you note the irony of your statement if you are working right now

Stealing what?

Also, I don't know if it makes a difference to you, but I'm pretty sure he's in Canada.

I can repeat it since you felt the need to. It can go on for years. Literally doing nothing but occupying space and breathing while getting paid for it.

Didn't you have a meeting or a conference call the other day?

When you accept a job, whether you sign anything or not, you are forming a contract in which you exchange your work for money. When you stop working and keep taking the money... I don't know. What do you call it?

Cheezy, as odd as this may sound to you, I am on vacation. So what if I am taking it in my home town, and spending a good deal of it in my office. I am also my own boss, so if I slack off, I am stealing from no one but me.

This isn't a case of slacking off though. This is a case of a degenerate, irresponsible, immoral asshole taking complete advantage of his work situation, and coming here to brag about it. If this guy worked for me, he would have fun collecting his last pay check.
