How I Skive Off WorkAdmit 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.)

Video loved the Normanator10 years or so ago, I had a job in the local video shop (not a geek by the way), Bollockbuster or somesuch. It wasn't a big shop, but a small 1-man "express" one so being left unattended I could get away with serial skivery. Basically it had this really high counter, and the telly was in front of it facing the till, so I used to lock up, stick a "back in 5 mins" sticker in the door, sit behind the counter and watch videos undisturbed for hours. The actual work which was supposed to take all day really only lasted for an hour or so anyway, so even with the shop open, I just watched vids for 8 hours a day for the whopping sum of £3.30 an hour.
Gravy.
