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.)

MP3sI wrote an MP3 server with fancy web pages, top 10 listings, personal favourites, etc, all to teach myself Perl so I could get another job. Then I ripped my entire CD collection onto it, stuck an extra processor and a load of RAM scavenged from unattended lab machines and connected it to the compnay network. It rapidly became the most used server in the building. And I did all this while sat next to my boss.
Admittedly they did make me redundant a few months later, but with my new found Perl skills I found a new job in no time.
