I've been SOOO totally slacking at work these past few weeks. I am over 10 minutes late almost every day, but I never mark that on my timesheet like we're supposed to. I take 10-20 minute naps on the toilet seat after lunch (not the most comfortable place for a nap, but falling asleep at my desk would be a bit much, no?...;). I spend a portion of nearly every hour chatting extensively with Mike from the next cubicle. I write private emails. I even read fanfic (of the non-porny variety, just to be safe in case someone takes a closer look at my screen ;P). And I just don't seem to have any qualms about it whatsoever. I guess my morale is gone.:P If I were my boss, I'd probably fire myself - but the boss is on vacation, and everyone else seems just about as focused and dedicated as I am. Except for those who possibly hope they might NOT get laid off by September. But those are a distinct minority. Of course there is gossip and speculation and all that crap, but I don't really take part in it. I mean, what business of mine is it who stays & who goes, apart from my own sorry ass which will be the first one out the door?... Whatever angle you take it from, I won't be there for this year's Christmas party - and that is all I need to know. So I might as well enjoy the nice and stress-free environment while I'm still in it.
Incidentally, a friend of mine has a job she is bored to hell with, and she says that as soon as she finds something more stimulating, she will be happy to recommend me in her place ( (she knows I don't mind boring jobs, because I have a fascinating alternate universe inside my brain at all times ;P). )
