Ummm. yah.
Tell me how *gggg*
I'm a trainee in the "Provinzial" (a big German insurance company), more precisely in the data processing department.
I surf the web, have some private little c++ winapi coding practises *g* and stuff.... but that's not too interesting at all.
Anyone knows some good funny Webpages or other stuff I could deal with? :)

www.bored.com (although I don't find that site too interesting)
my solution is to sit and ring every extension in your office, one at a time... and only let it ring once, and then hangup. Once they get mad enough... let it ring til they pick up, yell an explitive, and hangup. rinse, repeat.
www.rinkworks.com is a good one...
sweet! thanks cheez... i lost that bookmark and I've been lookin for that forever.
Hehe... as you can see, ober5861, my thread emerges to be kind of beneficial ;))
try this site: http://www.veryfunnypics.com/
it gets me through work sometimes
jokes.com :D I used to read those stuff all the time!
I've got a similar thing where I call another extension and ask to speak to myself. When the person who answers comes to tell me that I have a phone call, I tell them I'm on the phone and ask them to take a message for me. When they pick up the phone to take a message (from me, to me) I just tell them I'll call back later. Then I do call back...a lot.Quote:

If you're on a LAN, altering other peoples desktops is always good for a laugh. eg, altering the start menu, adding a few shortcuts to the desktop itself. You can even do things like close their apps, open cd draws and power down the pc. :D
Not that I condone this sort of behaviour in the workplace.... ;)
sounds like a laugh, is it easy to do??
>sounds like a laugh, is it easy to do??
Sure, what isn't when you know how?! :D

Well, where I work we will do any number of obvious non-work activities such as playing cards, and various contests where we build something and then race it down the hall. :D By far the most entertaining thing to do when bored is to come up with a near impossible problem and give it to the entry level programmers marked *URGENT!*. Then sit back and watch them run around all willy nilly trying to figure it out. :) Generally you can kill an hour or three just by doing something stupid like trying to throw floppies like a frisbee into a waste basket on the other side of the office.
