Screwing off at work thread

It's Monday. I hate being here today and the only upside is that it's a short week. I'm also perusing MFP under the guise of returning emails and messages on my phone instead of fixing all of our impossible problems here.

I think the company is better off without me today.

Anybody else giving less than 100%?

    I've decided to stop busting my *kitten* for the pay I get. So they get the work out of me for what they pay me compared to others. So yeah, I feel like only giving 50% is about what I'm worth.

    *raises hand* Although, I really should be giving more than 100 today since it's a short work week.

    You are a visionary. I'm going to try that when I find my phone charger.

    Last week was slow and this week is proving to be even slower. I've sworn off the FB app on my phone for a while to reset my muscle memory of grabbing it every ten seconds so now I'm trying to read more but I can only read so much at one time.

    I am jealous of all you that have a short week. I'm rocking about 18% today. But now that it's after lunch, that number might possibly significantly decline. Stay tuned.

    30% of the time, I give work 100% of my attention.

    Flying solo at the office this afternoon. Listening to Dave Matthews Band and updating my MFP. I'm sure I'll manage to get those things that are absolutely necessary done before I close up shop.

    I am more of a "sprinter" and give 100% when it's important (there's a deadline or someone important needs something). Otherwise, it's not really necessary. There are times I am super busy and times I am not.

    I am the KING at goofing off! I've made it a science to get my jobs done and still screw around online and play my 3DS, PSP and Vita!! and while "working"...I still manage to catch Pokémon! YES I STILL PLAY...DON'T LAUGH...go ahead and laugh.

    I am billing my time today to "unassigned", and getting some exercise walking, stair climbing, and mfp chatting.

    I usually give 200% or 300%, or more, depending on how many people we are short or don't do what they should. It's getting old, I need another job but with the same or better pay

    My job can be mind-numbingly boring on a good day, and Mondays are never a good day! Took a walk outside (in the 70's!) and killed half an hour; been on here, too. So I'd say I'm at a solid 25% today? Plus my boss and the other office slave are BOTH going to be away from Wednesday through whenever, so it'll be me and Netflix the rest of the week. :D

    100% goofing off at my desk while I eat lunch.. After 1:00 p.m. I might give it 82%.. That will dwindle down to 60% by 4:00 p.m.

    I'm about 42%. I see the pile of papers to my left needing to be inputted, but I have until Wednesday to do such..


    I think even admitting that just brought me to 38%.
