	Boring job Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I got myself a job, I'm a full time temp doing data entry, which is basically the lowest of the low in the office hierarchy. OTOH the woman who's temping with me is so it's not all bad .

Ok so I'm motivated to actually get out of bed and go to work but when we're not talking or not close to each other, it's boring as ****. How to keep oneself amused? No internet access . No 3D Pinball on the computer . CD player only holds one disk and can't listen to same album five times a day, and can't afford an iPod (or whatever will keep Asher happy) at the moment.

Answers on a postcard, with pretty pictures.

Start an office romance. That's what everyone else does. You're bi, so you have twice the chances of a normal bloke.

It's data entry; I could train a sufficiently literate monkey to do it.

People are already talking apparently . One of the guys in the post room is gay but I'm more interested in the aforementioned female.

Yeah I mean if it's a temp job, it's all good in the neighborhood.

Office temps, the ultimate homewreckers.

speaking of photocopier. You could pull a Rob Schneider SNL character and make annoying plays on everyone's name as they go up to the copier.

All jobs are boring. That's what job is about. Take a most pleasant activity and make it compulsory and it will lose its charm in a while

Data entry - now that is a euphemism for 'utter boredom'

Well you're just going to have to cope, or get some sort of music player. You say the CD can only hold one disc...may I ask why you just can't bring more CDs in and change them once one has finished?

In any case, I can listen to an album all day at work if it's a long and good album. But usually I bring 2 CD's. And it's not like I listen to them all the time.

PH, excactly my question, maybe it´s a new kind of CD player who can only play the CD it was bought with? Like a discardable camera?
