Has anyone ever pulled the work for a while, get fired and then collect on the pay for the next year while not working, then get another job and do it all over again scheme?

I wish! Unfortunately I'm an indentured servant for the next 4 years, 11 months, and 13 days...

Do you have that down to hours, minutes, and seconds?

Darn near. After days like today (staying until 5:00PM for no reason... literally being sent down to a hallway with 15 other people and 2 brooms to clean it for 2 hours because we had to accomplish "something" during our work stoppage that isn't even holding back our production)...

...it's a very long time left...

Myself and my co-worker each have an Xbox 360 setup in our data center, so we go in there and do some gaming. Then take a nap.

Then take a nap.

Together? That's sweet.

I like to sleep or surf the net. Sometimes I play the PSP or the DS.

I don't have time to be bored at work... I hate Tim Horton's.

I used to work at a call center doing tech support for RoadRunner Internet service. That was a boring job. I'd be playing PSP while helping customer's fix their problems, or surf the Net (with limited access). I used to bring a Yo-Yo too.

I love Tim Horton's. It's a nice treat every time I'm north of the border (just a few hours away, mind you.) Any place that serves donuts with everything can't be bad! It's always a favorite destination when I go up to Vancouver to catch a hockey game.

[LelandJLK]

Currently in class, so I get on forums, chat with friends, stalk people on facebook and playing random games to pass the time. I hate 4 hour classes!
