I swear to god, my life is like Office Space. My ID card works on the 4th try to open the damn door, then when I get in, I space out until 10AM (I start at 8:30...) and then, when I decide that I've had enough posting on ATOT, I look around, asking if there's anything to do

"Well...we're all kinda busy, and since you're not set up on the system, there isn't much you can do."

4 hours and counting until I can leave to get my car repaired :(

that's when you should take the time to do something productive on your own.

I get paid to sit at a desk and wait for someone to need me.

In a week I do about 15 mins of actual work.

Heh, I'm completely caught up, and I got two things to do, but they're not ready for me to do them. It's been like this for about two weeks, I've even caught up on most of my misc. stuff.

Hey, at least I'm catching up on my tech knowledge again...Anandtech and HardOCP are my bastions of sanity at the moment...stupid cubicles with no view outside.

Typical office job. Cept I'm in my own office, which rules, very spacious.

Lots of online & telebusiness. Creating contracts, establishing clients, placing orders, fixing orders, basically keep the business running :)

becareful.. no work = you're fired

one of my friends had no work. he just surfed the web for literally 4hrs+/day for a month or so. one day, they called him in and laid him off (and only him), saying there was no work and they didnt him. (him, being the dumbass, never approached his boss, asking if there;s anything else he can do. he just thought he was living large.)
