My job is so boring! D:

[Panacea]

What the fuck do you do? I don't have that much work to do, and I do it too fast (I force myself to work at a snail's pace to kill time)...I have way too much time on my hands and it's so annoying.

I only have two coworkers in the office at any given time, and one rattles on about her life for uncomfortably long periods of time so I don't engage her too often, and the other, my supervisor, doesn't like when anyone talks to her.

I can't really play arcade games online because my screen is visible and I have to be able to minimize at any given time. Any suggestions???

I want to jump out the window, it's so bad!

I don't really have a suggestion.

But if I were in your place I think I would end up passing out :S...

I would go to linkedin.com and see if you can find friends who are online and network yourself....

I would find a way to position your monitor so that no one can see it then watch TV/movies online.

I wish, I'm totally screwed. My desk is butted against the wall, and my back is to the entire open office and RIGHT next to the main printer. I have people sneaking up on me all day and I can't move my screen anywhere it couldn't easily be seen. :mad

lol baaad setup. There's an empty office now that everyone was laid off but they won't let me have it :24:

This is why I switched to a desk where my back is to the wall

I don't check facebook, because for some reason that feels like a step too far, but I come here, I look at webcomics or writing sites... I also do all my writing at work, because it's fairly easy to disguise a word document as something you're supposed to be doing.

Haha, smart move. There isn't a desk like that here, I think the supervisor likes to know what everyone is doing. She once told me "you don't have to close out of your websites when I walk by, I see you do that all the time, you get your work done well and on time, you can chat"... UGH lol I turned so red.


Ya that's a good idea, I do like writing too. Thanks HK!

you probbaly need some heavy breathing type phone calls to bring a blush to your cheek

Those privacy/glare filters can minimise what folks see. There was one person on my bank of desks that had one. Couldn't see anything unless you were directly behind and even then, only clearly if you peered down at his level.

I download books and email them to myself so it looks like I'm just reading an email instead of a book.

Good idea, I should definitely do this. I'm sort of ADHD, so I struggle to peacefully read, but I want to give it a try

Here's a suggestion.
