    I used to bring small gifts that needed to be wrapped, hide them in the back room (full visual to the front office) and wrap them up. Both me & my coworkers would do this, lol

    We also worked on Christmas cards. Shoot, if it was super slow? We'd write newsy fun Christmas letters, too!

    Decorate the office with Santa & his Reindeer, garland, cutsie Christmas stockings from The Dollar store, a little mini Christmas tree...hey, we even had regular customers who would put a gift under it (YAY!!)

    I'm in a courthouse. When I go over to the jail, I prefer not to be the one in handcuffs. :yawn:

    So painfully bored. Just got next year's monthly/weekly planner and have been writing in birthdays and holidays, haha. And decorating each one with awesome pictures and colors. Clearly the first day of winter needs blue snowflakes drawn all over it...

    I'm an accountant for a hospital and two weeks out of the month I don't do ****. This is one of those weeks.

    Caillou is freaky, but I feel bad because he looks like he has cancer. I'd rather be hanging out with 4 year olds than high schoolers who laugh at me when I ask them to do their work.

    I'm not so bored at work as much as I just don't feel like working. MFP is good for my procrastinating habits.

    Exactly this.

    I swear I have excellent work ethic!!...when I don't have access to the internet. :laugh:

    Soooo bored today. The last couple of weeks before the holidays are such a drag here. Winter is also my industry's slow season, so that's just adding to the amount of boring.

    I can't wait until 5:30 to be out of here!! I keep staring at the computer screen to appear as if I'm studying spreadsheets or something serious.

    I'm bored. There's only so many phone calls you can make before you throw your hands in the air and realize that everyone spent the money they had to pay their bills on Christmas.

    Yeah, I'm bored. Maybe I should start another thread about being bored at work...

    I HATE Calliou!!! I banned from my children, that kid is whiny brat.

    Same here! I'm not really bored since I have a lot to do for work but I am definitely easily distracted and it doesn't help that my 2 year old is boycotting his nap today.

    I just had a student steal a completed homework assignment off the teacher's desk and put her name on it. She thinks I'm an idiot. I watched her do absolutely nothing on the other side of the room all period long and then materialize a completed assignment at the end of the hour. Thankfully, only one student turned in the homework all day long, so I know the rightful owner.

    :mad: :explode:

    Super bored here too. 1.5 hours left though, so not so bad. We haven't had much to do around here, so we're working really slow to stretch the workload out for longer.
