This is a question How I Skive Off Work

Admit it. No one does any work these days. It's all looking at crappy websites with your thumb hanging over alt tab incase the boss walks over. Tell us your best methods of skiving, and any resultant incidents. (Maybe your slacking off has got someone sacked, or resulted in a large scale industrial accident.)

Well you could always just run out of work....
Well ive done the fifteen minute chat thing while looking for stock for a customer. 'Oh we searched high and low for it... sorry maam' lso where i used to work the pet section was fabtastic to hide in, it was very sought after to stock that area ecause all the cans would be with the wrong flavours so you could take all the cans off and rearrange the shelf, also it was at the back of the shop where customers couldnt find you and the boss wouldnt see you. Fantastic.

But now i have a better job, i get paid mnore to sit around and open envelopes all day, and we dont even have to do the opening part as we have a machine that can dothat for us. The beginning of the week we ran out of work to do so sat there listening to Traffic Warden stories and how they did a practical joke on some girl over a motorbike that was 'evidence in a major case' She denied that she had touched it so they needed a sample of her fingerprints and she was told to take her clothes off because it could contain evidence... as someone said before the police force is in bad condition with loads of crazy people.

As our manager isnt even in the same office as us we could get away with anything, very minimal work because she would never know! Also I love running down to the other departments on a wandabout seeing who wants this piece of mail. And taking diversions while delivering stuff to the front desk.

I love my job. Also when everyone else has gone home I just wander around the office tidying up, i even cleaned the window next to my desk the other day. And spent 45 minutes chatting to some guy who wanders in and out everyday. Flxi time is so much fun!
