Yes. You read it right. Sometimes, there are days in the office which you have nothing else to do except some minor tasks here and there which can be done in an hour or even just for few minutes. So, to survive the boredom and to pass the time of the day, here are 10 ways to waste time at work:
1. Climb on your desk; shriek "Mouse!" and watch the office descend into chaos.
2. Volunteer to do the tea run. You'll be so popular when you return; no one will ask why you took an hour.
3. Pay frequent trips to the loo. When that gets boring, arrange a rendezvous with a friend for a gossip on the stairs.
4. Cultivate a slow, dignified walk. It will take you twice as long to get to the filing cabinet. You can stop for chats on the way too.
S. Take up smoking, then slip off for 10 minutes every hour to satisfy those cravings. Better still; pretend you've taken up smoking. It's cheaper, you don't ruin your health and you still get the cigarette breaks.
6. Say you've converted to a cult and must close your eyes and meditate for half an hour a day. If anyone queries it, say it is discrimination on grounds of religion.
7. Bring a nail file to work and file each fingernail for five minutes. Claim you've read a bong which says this will improve your typing speed.
8. Put on your specs, mess your hair to make you look busy and distracted, then sit at your screen e-mailing your friends around the globe.
9. Pick a story in the paper and start a debate about the case's rights and wrongs. Colleagues might come to blows and disrupt the whole morning.
10. Sneak into work early to make your desk really untidy, then spend half that morning conscientiously tidying it again.
