    I don’t start work for a few hours but I am will probably stay busy all day because I am like the only sysadmin for my part of the organization… its a type of job that either is boring with nothing but maintenance or the fucking world is on fire and everyone wants me to do something about it

    I work for my inlaws in a very small shop. We’re taking all of next week off, so I hustled all morning to get work done. Now that it’s after lunch, I will be coasting and doing the absolute bare minimum.

        I wish. Are you kidding me? I work in the spreadsheet mines of an adjusting firm.

        At least I get to hear strange and grim fishermen’s tales. The rest sucks though.

    Oh, goofing off, for sure. I’ve got my feet up and I’m watching old episodes of King of the Hill right now.

    But also my whole staff shifted to working four ten-hour shifts for the summer, so we’re all off today (and every Friday for the duration of the summer break). One of the “perks” of working for public schools.

    My schedule is all over the place, so any day can be my Friday. I just goof off as much as possible while still giving the appearance of working.

    I have been getting rawdogged by private equity all year, it won’t be stopping anytime soon. Nothing says efficiency like taking a 60-90 day project and quadrupling the costs and EDT.

      I got rawdogged so hard that I’m unemployed now. Went from an utterly crushing pace and workload to nothing. I mean I like not having to work right now, but once the megar severance I got runs out,I will enjoy it a lot less.

      Pe is worse than Satan.

    Since I have to come in to work on Saturday for “a couple of hours” and I know it is going to be a full shift from 2pm to 10pm, I am not exactly in a very productive mood today. If anyone tries to bug me at my desk, I am definitely gonna go out to a random production area and space out while I stare at machinery for a couple of hours

    I’m unemployed, but not goofing off. Going to renew my health card, then working on a project, then possibly cooking supper for my benefactors (but also possibly not cooking supper).

      Good for you.

      I’ve been there myself and the worst thing you can do is slow to a halt.

      Stay busy and good luck with the job hunt.
