    I don’t start work for a few hours but I am will probably stay busy all day because I am like the only sysadmin for my part of the organization… its a type of job that either is boring with nothing but maintenance or the fucking world is on fire and everyone wants me to do something about it

        I wish. Are you kidding me? I work in the spreadsheet mines of an adjusting firm.

        At least I get to hear strange and grim fishermen’s tales. The rest sucks though.

    I’m unemployed, but not goofing off. Going to renew my health card, then working on a project, then possibly cooking supper for my benefactors (but also possibly not cooking supper).

      Good for you.

      I’ve been there myself and the worst thing you can do is slow to a halt.

      Stay busy and good luck with the job hunt.

    My schedule is all over the place, so any day can be my Friday. I just goof off as much as possible while still giving the appearance of working.

    Since I have to come in to work on Saturday for “a couple of hours” and I know it is going to be a full shift from 2pm to 10pm, I am not exactly in a very productive mood today. If anyone tries to bug me at my desk, I am definitely gonna go out to a random production area and space out while I stare at machinery for a couple of hours

    I work a 4 day week with fridays off. It’s pretty chill, but to be honest I think about working on fridays again. Maybe optimal for me would be to have every second friday off. Every friday off is a lot of free time, that I can mostly appreciate when I work. You know?

    Ehhh to be honest, I’ve gotten a little too comfortable on the other days of the week just slacking off, so I’m hoping my brain will let me power through at least a few items today so I don’t look like I’m doing nothing.

    My work does 4x10s so most people choose to have Fridays off instead of Mondays, which means it’s extra quiet on Fridays. Great for productivity.

    I work for my inlaws in a very small shop. We’re taking all of next week off, so I hustled all morning to get work done. Now that it’s after lunch, I will be coasting and doing the absolute bare minimum.
