Bored at work

I need ideas of things to do at work. I am either totally swamped or dead. I love my job and it is actually my career so I don’t want to leave…plus it has great benefits and great pay. I just need something to do in those dead times. Thanks!

Answer #1

If your boss agrees that there’s nothing to do, then you do have a bit of freedom! Maybe you could show your initiative by using the internet to research new avenues for the business - I have no idea what job you do but perhaps you could help out with creative new ideas..?

Answer #2

My boss comes in and sits down to ask me “are you bored too?” LOL I was warned that there would be some down time. I’m okay with that because I love my work. I am just trying to get new ideas for things to do.

Answer #3

Prank call? Race on a wheely chair? Throw paper aeroplanes? Make up a song or story at your desk - make it funny or exaggerate what you see around you? Email your best friend/crush/other half? Book a holiday?

Answer #4

lol, im at work right now

Answer #5

I would bring in a book of crossword puzzles or wordfinds to stash in your desk…

Answer #6

I agree with smexii_loz!

Answer #7

Read an e-book.

Answer #8

tell that to your boss. they may be able to give you some extra projects to pass the time…or go cross-train in another department. I’ve done that and it sure makes the day go by faster…plus you get more experience in more areas, which is always good on the resume
