No work - At work!

What do you do when there is no work at work? I am at this new job in Boston. It's been 6 weeks. I got some initial training and things but after a week, it's been dead slow. They say the work will pick up - when? they don't know that yet. I'm glad I found a job right after school but at the same time absolutely tired of staring at the computer screen and doing exactly - NOTHING. It's painful to pretend to be working while you know you are not and I sure do not want to get used to this routine. Anyone in that situation - please share what you did/do. bolyokipolyo

  I am not sure where do u work but i can guess.  just realx and enjoy the day. don't be looking for the work, otherewise if it comes u will be overwelmed.  they already know the situation and if u r looking for work why don't u clean all the computer or do something ... i have had the same situation for last couple of years and i am loving it, all it matters is if your bill is paid or not  just my two cents

Thanks Guys/gals, So I am not the only one huh! I know what to do - I am going to get that 'Binders full of women' from Mitt Romney and have fun with it. I hope no one cares, I'm a NEW GUY here at work anyway.. Happy Bijaya Dashami.

कस्तो मोज हो यो IT मा काम गर्ने हरुलाई पैसा पनि टन्नै आउने काम पनि गर्नु नपर्ने ? म त IT र nursing गर्ने नेपालीहरु बाहेक अरु कोहि पनि भेटिन्न हो | My suggestion read loads of interesting books.

Is it ok to access websites like facebook, sajha and other website's unrelated to work on company's wireless network.

asecret · Oct 18, 2012 9:50 AM

Well I am not in IT or Nursing like most here. I am at a engineering consulting firm and waiting for a project to pop up. But sure it seems to me that lot of people are having a blast not working but having a job, especailly IT folks. I'm not the only one hawling at the moon..Enough complaining hai...अल्छे तिग्रो, स्वादे जिब्रो ! btw those websites some of you suggested are great..Check this one out IT folks :)

bolyokipolyo · Oct 18, 2012 10:11 AM

 I don't work in IT or Nursing either.

Never work for CPA firm, you will be overloaded with work that you will not have time to turn around and get burned really fast

Nepal-Hamro · Oct 18, 2012 11:02 PM

 I started getting busy only after 3 mos :D .. you getting paid for not doing a thing is good.. though dead boring :) well you always have the chat room to entertain you here:)
