[Closed] How many of you are bored stiff at work and clock watching waiting for it to end

The end of the would be handy, given how much work I have still to do.

Still, it's not as bad as the time I did a 36 hour all nighter on 23/24 December in another city....

Been clock watching since Tuesday morning, still got half a day tomorrow yet, any ideas to keep me going?

god knows man! i have been sitting here listening to spotify which takes the edge off!

there is a good video on here of some boys out in chamonix that wasted 6 minutes

*/ Puts hand up /*

Had enough several days ago.....

me, and I havent even started yet. Dont finish today until 10pm then 4 hours tomorrow of putting up with ungrateful, stuck up, rude kids.

Yeah, that's my box too.

Sucking on way too many Strepsils is my chosen method of easing the boredom.

Me, even more so as I handed my notice in yesterday! 8)

thats super painful!

back to work tomorrow. 🙁

i thought strepsils have a laxative effect if you consume to many? Guess you can sit on the bog for a bit 🙂

Poised over Percy Porcelain works for me, redhouse! Anything to kill time.

Ha ha!

i have found that going on chain reaction and shopping for loads of stuff, then deleting it all cos you have no money left kills an hour!

I'm WFH till the new year now - it's still dragging like a bitch on this conf call...

Not long back from a boozy Christmas lunch, surprised I managed to log in once back in the office. Not risking typing any emails so figured I'd spend my remaining couple of hours here, then luckily I'm in walking distance of home.

Still, it's not as bad as the time I did a 36 hour all nighter on 23/24 December in another city....

I remember being in Shetland (for work) once on 24th December, awaiting a "gap in the snowstorm" to fly off the island. Then later awaiting "defrosting the frozen wings" of the plane at Aberdeen to get me to London.

As I don't like flying at all, I was glad when I eventually got home in time for Christmas day.

to kill time . . been colouring up the last few panels of this today . . . it's not for everyone though this illustrating game?

I've been wfh for two weeks. Am I motivated?

waves hand , me sir. yawn. But I'm a contractor so I think of the money and listen to dodgy rock and metal on spotify and have one more conf call for the day in 12 mins and then on my bike.

I'm judging you solely on the effort you put into the moon landings thread.

I'm now so bored I'm sketching out rules for my new epic game, which I've whimsically entitled Comedy Mammal Top Trumps.

Basically, you pick a comedy mammal from Google Images with a high comedy rating. Your unseen STW foe does likewise. Then, you compare and the winner gets to wee in his/her opponent's shoes/heels.

Here's mine:

Name: Gavin
Comedy mammal rating: 67/100
Likes: Lazy sunsets over Lake Bala
Dislikes: Lolcats and Joan Jett

A sure-fire winner? Maybe not, but it's killed 2.5 minutes...

quality

No-one else then?

Okay, I'll play myself:

Should do the trick... I get message 'copy image URL' when I control+mouse click (on a Mac though) and I just press that.

I reckon this genius game deserves its own thread... 😉 ... but we'll need your contribution smartish here, or you're out of the game!

EDIT: I think you're scoring low with Fido the Milk Rustler... that's got to be in the high 80s at least.
