Are you a bad employee?

Recommended Posts

besides the obvious surfing on this site, what else do you do / have you done while on company time?

for me:
(previous jobs)
went to a movie once

broke a copy machine, on purpose

used company cell phone to call international long distance just to rack up some charges

(this job)
used company printer for printing out my tax return (approx 40 pages)

Holy shit...are you serious? Please tell me you are kidding. You should have your nuts cut off for such a heinous crime.:|



Dude, think about all the trees! You evil evil bastard. The environment comes first. What he did was very very wrong and you should not harass him for it. I'm glad he removed the sand form his vagina and could own up to his own shortcomings.

it's really not that hard. once you stop caring and realize th at you are very necessary to what they're doing, you can get away with anything.

nm, I guess I did do that back when I was working for a paid ambulance company and was their only ALS medic. Yeah, I should have been fired many times. But those are stories for another time.

I used to turn up late EVERY day because of transport. I was nearly exactly always an hour late but left at the same time as everyone else, but the way i saw it was i was doing the hardest job on my own and didnt get relief until after they had their breaks meaning i didnt get one. So when they started complaining about me leaving at the same time as them i just didnt care.

When it was really annoying i used to spend extra long in the shower (had to shower in a and out of rooms, was a genome research institute) and just lay on my back. I would literally lay there on the floor or sat against the shower wall for 40 minutes or so, it seriously is a hangover cure aswell.

Besides dropzone...

Take about 2-3 hour lunches and say "I was at the main office talking about timesheets" IF questioned
Come in late... daily
Leave early... daily
ebay shopping... daily
Solitaire and Free Cell... daily
Personal phone calls... hourly
On-line games... almost daily
Balancing my checkbook... almost daily
Just bought a car - had to get a loan too
I have told my boss to "fuck off" a couple of times, but he just laughs at me. I also told him if he ever asked me to get him coffee, the coffee would be poured in his lap, and I would be out the door.

Other than that, I am the ideal employee. :)

I'm guessing I've got about 20 jumps on company time, where I returned to work after a skydive...plenty more where I left work early to skydive and didn't return. I've been on the local news a few times now playing during the workday (jumping or at a bar).
