Im at a job right now where I probably do 2-3 hrs of work max a day. Anyone else employed and wondering what to do with their "free time" ? :D

"I generally come to work about 15 minutes late. I use the side door, so Lumbergh doesn't see me. I space out for a while, and do this for about an hour after lunch too. I'd say that in any given week, I only do about 15 minutes of real, actual work."

:D

Depends on how busy I am. Right now, I'm just killing time until my boss gets back tomorrow and we meet about the redesign of our website, or I get a phone call or email for tech support. Business is slow right now because of summer (I work at a company that makes educational software, doing some tech support and a fair amount of website design).

I work about 65-75% of the time I'm at my campus computer consulting job and I work about 25%-35% of the time I'm at the radio station.

If the idiots at work would fix their bloody network I'd be working pretty much every minute I was there. However, since no one wants to actually do their friggin job I get to sit on my butt and and do nothing but watch data slowly trickle down the pipes for about 3 or 4 hours every day....not even allowed to surf the net while I'm waiting either.

A lot when you are filing pages and pages of stuff.

No pc = you do work or you stand and get bored.........

depends on whether the boss (director of lab) is there. We actually get more done with him out of the country. With him around I'd 4 out of an 8 hours day. He loves having pointless meetings.

I work fulltime 8-hour shifts and my daily agenda is about the same.
 

At my current job (Dept. of Public Safety vehicle patrols) I do about 20-30 minutes of actual work in an 8-hour shift. The rest of the time is just driving around/wasting time with the other officers/students.

I have never been busier. I was on a steady incline in posts per day avg, but I think I post less than 5 times a day now. :|

What day is it today ?
