The bored at work thread

[Rich]

Does anyone else get as bored as me at work?
So can you suggest anything I can do (other than actually working), read or play on the internet.
Something like the old AVforums gaming arcade would be good.

One slight problem though, we have a filter that stops me looking at most games/interesting sites.........even blocks most of the AVforums pages

Anyway here's my contribution............

The younger guys at work spend hours drooling over online car sales sites.

Have you tried some web-based proxies? They'll let you on to any website you want, as long as they're not blocked themselves!

Try:

bypass.technologyreports.info
www.1proxy.info
2233.biz

These have all been banned for us now, but they worked a treat for a while!

I don't drive......good idea though.

Jezzer that might take some explaining if I got caught doing that.

I suggest learning something like Linux or programing. There are loads of projects to work on and it doesn't look like you are skyving off.

Don't suppose surfing the job market would work? If you are bored maybe time to change.....

The place is being run so badly, i'm gonna hang around for my redundancy.
