Me and a co-worker recycle all kinds of $hi!t from work. Copper, scrap metals, printed circuit board what the bosses don't know (or care) is that we get paid for the recyclables.

We get paid to get paid for recycling.

all you people must have it nice to have all this time on your hands and not get in trouble. I cant text, use the phone, goof off or ill get fired, i have ZERO downtime at my work, hell i dont have paid vacation, dental, medical nothing. I get ZERO benifits at work and cant take days off or ill get fired all i get is a paycheck, im lucky to even get that. I work at dell thats why dell blows.......and were all getting fired funny how that works out. I suggest you go in the bathroom and pretend to take a dump, sit on your hand until it gets numb, and have "me time" with your self and when your finish take a nap on the toliet

As long as I am doing something that will improve my skills at work and benefit the work place, I am safe.

I made a paper target on my clipboard above my desk (which is also magnetic) and i throw little magnets at it like a dartboard.. or mess around with liquid nitrogen. I work at the air force research lab though.

What do you do with the liquid nitrogen?

I mainly just read when there is downtime. I work in a lab so there are often several hours spent waiting for various things to run. In the past 5 weeks of working there I've read more than I did all last year in school.

yay downtime! Because of the nature of my job I end up with a lot of free time that I mainly use up on s2ki. If you're allowed to use the net I suggest just looking up hobbies you've never really researched before. I actually did start practicing sleight of hand at work and now I'm decent. I can pull off a couple tricks.

Or bring a couple of R&T mags and you'll be fine
