Workplace Boredom
There's got to be more to your working day than loafing around the internet, says tfi049113. How do you fill those long, empty desperate hours?

Note to Supermarket Bakery Managers
Do not allow two bored teenage boys to be the entirety of your bakery's staff from 8-11pm every Thursday night, otherwise you risk:
*Impromptu games of baseball played in the back room with a French stick and a stale roll
*Games of 'Laser Zone' using the stock-taking scanner guns - the target was the other guy's eyes, especially if he was serving a customer at the time
*The shrinkwrapping of inappropriate items in the shrinkwrapping machine
*Locking each other in the walk-in oven
*Exchanging pornography with the dodgy Nigerian night-cleaners (the manager wouldn't let any female staff on-shift with them, for reasons he never disclosed)
Still, it was better than my time in a call center.

re: The laser zone thing...
You can play an even cooler version of that game in a warehouse with the lights off (to enable sneaking and ninja tactics).
Attach product barcodes to the chest and back, run a stock count and then try and tag each other as many times as possible! You can print off your count sheet afterwards to determine the winner.
