What to do when you have absolutely nothing to do at work

[kstate16]

I'm an intern at this company and sometimes I literally don't have anything to do.  I'd say about half the time.  I'm expected 40 hours a week so it's not like I can go home (plus I need the $).  Suggestions for big time wasting websites?

Here's the kicker: social, blogging, entertainment, etc. are mostly blocked. I can get on ESPN, this site, news sites, but there is only so many articles I can read.

this is a good idea

Also, any video I try to watch , like highlights on ESPN or embedded videos, and imbedded photos (like on all of you guys' posts) are blocked. rough ridin' sucks.

I pop those up on my phone when needed.  another idea is to plan and implement your credit card points earning strategy and then start planning trips using said points.

Yeah. Start posting more, it will get you through the day. Also, this really helps me: Reading GQ, Twitter, Facebook, searching K-State articles, and texting filly's.

One day, after finding out that the guy who Goodfellas was based off of died, I spent approx. 3 hours researching mob things.  I have gained a ridiculous amount of random knowledge.

I have successfully planned a trip to Chicago in July and a Vegas trip in August.

I am convinced that 80% of office jobs require less that 20 hours of actual work per week if done by a reasonably competent and efficient person.  BBS your ass off kstate16.

you could probably take that 20 hours down to 10 and still maintain your 80% figure.

I feel like this is pretty much every office job (unless you're a data entry/worker ant person).  I think it's kind of funny, my soon to be career is bout making things more efficient. Yet, half the time I have my thumb up my ass.

Yeah...

That opens up a world of possibilities.

Well it would be pretty hypocritical for you to fire him for BBSing at work, but I would definitely give him half of your work so that you can BBS more.

I could (and do) work 60 hours a week and not have a minute to slack

On the topic of doing nothing at work, what's the best way to bbs on your phone at work. I usually lean it up against my keyboard, but then my neck hurts from looking so far down, suggestions?
