I used to work part time for a small buisness
It was run by a mate of mine,and it was usualy us and 2-3 other employees and as anyone who has worked for a smallish buisness knows, there tends to be periods where you're as busy as hell and others where there is sweet fuck all to do. Activities we dreamt up during the quiet times included:

*office chair jousting (I beleive there was talk of setting up a tornament at one point)

*Compiling a zombie/alien/robot emergancy plan with a veiw to including it in the company handbook.

*Attempting to create a sort of air cannon from jelly sweets, ductape, an air compressor thingie and a plastic tube. (Didn't work, sadly)

*Manufacturing a substance known only as "goo" by setting light to out of date sweets

*Forklift surfing (Attaching a wheeled office chair to the back of a forklift truck via a rope and.... well, you can guess the rest)

*Seeing if it would be possible to sneak into the office via the warehouse without being spotted on the security cameras (Calling up and distracting people from the monitors by pretending to be an irate customer is "cheating" apparently)

*Setting up massive epic pitch battles on Red Alert 2 via the company network

(in our defence, we did work bloody hard a lot of the time....)
