Sad isn't it? We have no work to do. They keep saying, "we're not laying anyone off" but how long will they pay me to post stuff on this forum?

4. I wish that I could do that
Sometimes, but not often I have a little spare time. I use to play minesweeper or freecell during that time. The computer, that they gave me after my computer died, has no games, no paint program (I had made a few original wallpaper), and doesn't even play cds. I have never been hooked up to the internet although I might be networked soon finally after bugging my boss about the convience of be able to share information with him and other supervisers over the network instead of them stealing my paperwork when I need it. Not being able to goof off on my computer gives me one less thing to be accused of, though. Maybe, I'll get a raise this year.

6. I spend virtually the whole day surfing the internet,
looking ad DU, news websites, betting the horses on-line. It makes the job almost bearable.
