I wish corporations would wise up to it, and allow their employees more responsibility and flexibility but I doubt it will happen any time soon.
- Touche 13y agoIt's actually kind of funny, because you have to make it look like you are working, but not working too hard. I once had a job that was seasonally busy. In the offseason there was almost nothing to do. I'd often use the opportunity to do some learning, whether a new language or new technique or just play around. But I had to be careful not to get into it, and type quietly as everyone knows there's not that much to do.
- noptic 13y agoWorst job ever: During a semester break (vacation?) I worked in a factory which produced wax powder. A machine filled packages with various powders and them on a convoy belt. If a package was to heayvy or to light another mechanism pushed of the belt intpo a little bay where I was postioned. My job was correcting the packages weight and putting it back on the belt. I often had shifts where I got 3(!) package in 8 hours and I had no other dutys, and I could not bring a book or anything else to kill the time.
