Whiling away the hours at work........

[sense4all]

How do you amuse yourselves at work when the going is getting tough? Mr Sense plays Buzzword Bingo during meetings. You need a like minded trusted collegue, and to know who will be speaking at the meeting. Every speaker has favourite words (that they think makes them appear intellectual) but occur so frequently they drive everyone else mad. You put two words per player in a "hat" and register how often they occur in the meeting. Loser has to buy coffee and cakes that afternoon.

How do you innocently help to pass the time at work?

i'm a Train Driver, and during my breaks, I like to play the Mouth Organ, occasionally a few others come and listen, and we also have another who plays the Banjo, so we have a Jamming session.

I read all the posts on AB! It passes hours. Have to be a little careful as my boss can see my screen but I reduce the window size to block out all but the actual text of the questions and answers. It's amazing what I've learnt off this site! Sometimes I surrepticiously play games of Sudoku too.

Sounds like fun Lonnie - shame you can't rig up some speakers for the passengers!

Hi smudge, i've done it, travelling in the front with another driver, (he was driving), he activated the p.a, and I seranaded the passengers, I don't know how it was taken, but there were no complaints.

Lonnie I wouldn't mind you belting out the' mind the gap blues ' if I was a passenger!
