I have a very boring job. It pays well, but it sucks because I literally have nothing to do half the time.

I loved my last job. I hated my boss and the pay was terrible.

My current employers made this job seem like it was more, in terms of works, than it really is. I love my bosses and I don't mind doing the work when I have it, but sitting here trying to think of ways to occupy 8 hours of my day is just ridiculous!

They way the company is structured there is no one I can ask for extra work either.

Any ideas??? It's getting a little depressing.

    You could give weight loss advice to strangers on the internet.

    You could pull almost all of these off while looking like you're still working...but I can't think of how to explain building a model ship at my desk and convincing my boss I'm working.

    Be thankful you have a job and that you are overpaid for not doing much
