With recession on, our company is having a tough time. One of the projects, on which I was working got over. So from 2-3 days, I am having less work or almost no work to do.
Things to do when you are in office and have no work to do.....
1) Shoot a rubber band: Try shooting a rubber band at the coffee cup on your desk. Fasten one end of the rubber band at the tip of your middle finger and the other end should be fastened to the edge of the thumb and form a sort of gun like shape with your fingers. Now take proper aim and bend your thumb to let go the rubber band with a zap !!! When your experienced enough....try shooting a colleague whose been overtly annoying to you.
2) Have coffee: The vending machine is a life saver at times. You'll feel drowsy after lunch in the afternoons. And with no boss to light up your arse, the coffee pleasantly lights up your senses so that you stay awake !!
3) Filing: Always a trick to make you look like you are working. Actually you are just punching papers and keeping them in files. If you work in a engineering consultancy, paperwork is lot and sometimes, tension free work like filing can make you look like you are doing a lot of work, while actually you are just doing a job of book keeping, quite important, but not as important as the actual work !
4) Come up with an administration or an office safety idea: This is a good one. People who really feel that the idea could improve things, do give ideas on a regular basis and these ideas are implemented many a times. For timepass, you could come up with a totally useless idea, which sounds good, but cannot be implemented for practical purposes. Prepare a detailed report and include details like how the idea can improve things and its benefits. For example, if the desks in your offices have sharp edges, suggest that rounded edges would be preferable for office desks, for purposes of safety. Knowing the cost of replacing the sharp edge tables, or the carpentary work involved in rounding the edges, the safety team wouldnt do it. Instead, they'll tell people to be more careful !!!
