Now I will answer myself to kill even more time until I go on the air :D

-----

-Do you get bored at work?
**yes...not a lot - but it happens...

-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge?
**I check my e-mail over and over and over - then write long-overdue e-mails, or I read the comics..or sit and stare

-Do you have a specific lunch hour at work - or can you take lunch whenever you feel like it?
**I can eat whenever I want - pretty much just whenever I can fit it into my day....no one keeps tabs on us which I like.

-What's the dress code like at your place of work?
**Business casual I guess...our boss likes us to look nice for press conference etc - luckily we don't have to get all dolled up like they do in TV :p

-Do you have an office or a cubicle? Or do you share a space with others?
**I'm in a newsroom - there's this island thing and four of us sit around it - there's a large wall/thing in the middle with cabinets- so I don't have to stare at the people across from me - but I still hear whistling guy all the time...he's clipping his nails right now :eek:

Guess I'm not the only bored one.

-What do you do when you get out of work?
**I go straight home to let the dog out, then I walk the dog, then I eat dinner..then I just do whatever

-are you happy with the times you go to work/get out of work?
**Overall. I don't come to work until 10 - I'd like it to be later because I HATE getting up in the morning lol...but 10 is good :nod:

-what would your ideal working hours be?
**Um noon - to like 7 or something....

-Do you get bored at work?
Yes!

-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge?
Handheld Yahtzee(with the audio off)! Or solitaire.

Specific

-What's the dress code like at your place of work?
Whatever you want to wear.

A sound mixer, with a rack of equalizers beside it.

Usually happy. Unless the act runs up until the last curfew minute.

None! :lol:

-Do you get bored at work?

No. I get bored when I'm in the office and no one is there, though. It's different from being alone at home, it's...lonelier. :laugh:

-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge?

Clean. I clean my apartment obsessively every day. Think Joan Crawford in Mommie Dearest. I never have nothing to do at the office, so I'm always busy when I'm there.

-Do you have a specific lunch hour at work - or can you take lunch whenever you feel like it?

Whenever. I usually don't eat lunch, though, I snack on nuts. :p

-What's the dress code like at your place of work?

Formal. I don't mind it because I like dressing up. If I'm at home, I usually dress up, too. :laugh:

-Do you have an office or a cubicle? Or do you share a space with others?

I have a drafting station in a cubicle. Light-up table, regular desk, and too much junk.

-What do you do when you get out of work?

Depends on the day!

-are you happy with the times you go to work/get out of work?

Yes. I work on my own schedule, but it requires a lot of self-discipline, so it was hard to get into any sort of routine for a long time.

-what would your ideal working hours be?

None at all, but I'm comfortable right now. :laugh:

I'm never not bored, at this job! :thumbsup::

-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge?
Um, did you see my post numbers? I'll just talk anyway. :laugh: Naw, I check other sites, or look for stuff to clean around work (barf).

-Do you have a specific lunch hour at work - or can you take lunch whenever you feel like it?
It's been more flexible lately, I don't have to take lunch and can come in later or leave earlier. But, technically, 1:30 ish.

-What's the dress code like at your place of work?
Office casual? The press guys wear work suit thingies (like mechanics) the boss wears jeans and shirts, and Tusk a-hole wears regular suit like garments, with ties. Graphics guy wears Yucky gross jeans and T-shirts. Sales guy dresses office casual.

-Do you have an office or a cubicle? Or do you share a space with others?
we're all in one big room, at separate desks. there's partitions, but i'm in front, and everyone else can see what I am doing.

-What do you do when you get out of work?
change clothes, walk home, the rest depends. Usually regular stuff. Two nights I go to class in the city.

-are you happy with the times you go to work/get out of work?
hmmm...11:00, 11:30 ish to 4-5? yeah, pretty happy. :laugh:

-what would your ideal working hours be?[/QUOTE]

-Do you get bored at work?

*Occasionally, yes. It's not that I'm never busy- I'm always overly busy. Sometimes it's just mind-numbing and I have to walk away.

-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge?

*I rarely visit the Ledge when I'm bored. I go read TWoP (recaps or forums or whatever) or LJ or indulge my love for Sark. Or I go into our graphics room and I cut boards and do other intern-y stuff.

-Do you have a specific lunch hour at work - or can you take lunch whenever you feel like it?

*I normally go to lunch at 1PM. Actually, I eat at my desk at around 11:45 or noon, and then spend my lunch break at 1 walking in the trails around our office park.

-What's the dress code like at your place of work?

*Casual to business casual. Today I'm wearing jeans, a green tank top, an athletic hooded zip-up jacket, and green sneakers. That's about average for me.

-Do you have an office or a cubicle? Or do you share a space with others?

*I have what we all fondly call officles. It's kinda tucked in, but not- surrounded by cubicle type walls, but they're just over waist-high. Kinda hard to explain.

-What do you do when you get out of work?

*I go home and work out for an hour while I watch the day's episode of Ed/Gilmore Girls/Felicity/whatever else kind of crap my Tivo's grabbed for me.

-are you happy with the times you go to work/get out of work?

*I work 9AM-5:30PM. It's okay. I work late too often, though.

-what would your ideal working hours be?

*uh, none. i hate working. i wouldn't mind 10-6.

-Do you get bored at work?

Yep, and my work is boring anyways...I just do data entry. Zzzzz...

-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge?

Watch TV...since I work at home. Earlier, I painted my new bathroom door. I'll snack (not a great thing, but I don't overeat or anything.), surf the net.

-Do you have a specific lunch hour at work - or can you take lunch whenever you feel like it?

I can eat when I want. YAY ME! LOL Working at home rules.

-What's the dress code like at your place of work?

Um...my pajamas. :laugh:

-Do you have an office or a cubicle? Or do you share a space with others?

Nope, just my desk. At my last job, we had a workstation, but no cubicles, thank God.

-What do you do when you get out of work?

Watch TV. :rolleyes: Well, from the time I get up (10AM) until I am ready to go to bed, I work off and on, sometimes until 2AM because we get paid by how much work we do...and I'm greedy. LOL

-are you happy with the times you go to work/get out of work?

Yep. Hee!

-what would your ideal working hours be?

What I have now. If I had a regular job, I would want to work the hours I did on my last job, which was from 8AM to 4:45PM.

Other sites? It's them damn gossip sites that I'm addicted to. I have every single bloody one in my favorites and must go to them every day. If a celebrity bends over the wrong way, I know about it. Kinda sad, but it makes for great conversations. :laugh:

I just read that Liz Smith sent a note to Madonna after she found out she was having a private party in Hollywood, and it read "Can I come? I just got over a bad love affair and need to go out and have fun." Madonna sent her a note back that said "Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Everyone has had that happen to them. And no- you can't come, it's private."

-Do you have a specific lunch hour at school - or can you take lunch whenever you feel like it? Yeah I have lunch 6th period which is about 11:50-12:35

"Debbie Harry is the nicest, best, most beautiful lady ever!" or something? :p

Do you get bored at work? Yeah, but not very often. We have our slow days, usually when school's on break.

-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge? I HATE when I come on here & it's dead, lol! I check email, cnn.com, do some research into stuff on the net. I also clean/restock my room.

-Do you have a specific lunch hour at work - or can you take lunch whenever you feel like it?We try to have 2 lunches (12:30pm and 1:30pm) but you can't exactly schedule it being a nurse. Too much going on, it's never the same day to day. Once in a blue moon my boss lets me leave an hour early instead of taking lunch, but only if I ask ahead & only if it's for an appointment of some sort.

-What's the dress code like at your place of work? We have these navy blue polo shirts, and cardigans. Both have our logo on them. They're not mandatory, but it makes it a hell of a lot easier to get dressed in the morning - throw one on with a pair of khakis & I'm out the door. Other than that, they don't love it when we wear jeans, but I do about once a week.

-Do you have an office or a cubicle? Or do you share a space with others?I have an office, but we do share if needed - another nurse may need to use my room & vice versa.

-What do you do when you get out of work? Either go work out or go right home. Once a month me & a few coworkers get together for dinner (we try to do a different ethnic food each time. So far we've done Thai, Japanese, Turkish, Indian, Lebanese, Spanish, Polish & Mixican.)

-are you happy with the times you go to work/get out of work? Yeah, I alternate shifts every month, so one month is M-F 8:30am-4:30pm; the next is M 11:30am-7:30pm, then T-F 9:30am - 5:30pm. I work about 8 or 9 Saturdays a year, from 8:30am-3:30pm.

-what would your ideal working hours be?I'd like to get out earlier, but I really don't miss getting up earlier (I used to have to get up around 5am to be at work by 6am.)

Today is going so damn slow -and it doesn't help that the people I'm trying to get a hold of for a story have not called back....urgh.

There is absolutely NO point to this thread at all....I'm just very bored...so I guess to pass the time I will come up with a few questions....

-----

-Do you get bored at work? YES!
-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge? I don't have internet access at work which is a good thing!
-Do you have a specific lunch hour at work - or can you take lunch whenever you feel like it? I take lunch at 1PM unless someone leaves early or is out. I watch Days Of Our Lives with a few other 1 o'clock regulars. :laugh:

-What's the dress code like at your place of work? Business casual I would call it. No jeans, sneakers, sleeveless tops, etc.

-Do you have an office or a cubicle? Or do you share a space with others? I have a cublicle sort of and my boss is on the other side,

-What do you do when you get out of work? Go home.

-are you happy with the times you go to work/get out of work? I am just glad to get out and be free!

-what would your ideal working hours be? Mine are OK actually but I would like to be able to make my own hours sometime.

-Do you get bored at work?
Depends on how busy we are. Sometimes i'd rather not be bored because that means I have a zillion hours left to go. Other times, if I have to speak to one more person, I want to rip my hair out.

-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge?
Stare. I know, lame. But usually I just sort of stare. Or talk to coworkers because if i'm bored? they are too.

-Do you have a specific lunch hour at work - or can you take lunch whenever you feel like it?
I don't take a lunch. I'm still working as I make a shotty attempt at eating.

-What's the dress code like at your place of work?
Black, black and more black. That's it.

-Do you have an office or a cubicle? Or do you share a space with others?
Office and salon/spa. We're around each other for 10+ hours a day so your space eventually becomes everyone elses.

-What do you do when you get out of work?
Go home and take a nap. I'm a lightweight.

-are you happy with the times you go to work/get out of work?
No. Wednesday I work from 9 in the morning until 8 at night and Saturday, I work from 9 in the morning until 5 at night. I hate those days.

-what would your ideal working hours be?
Well, i'd say never but since I have to work, 10-4 everyday. I'm 10-4 on Tuesday's and Friday's.

****. I should have saved this for tomorrow :laugh:

-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge?

i can't get on the ledge at work :(

we don't get lunch breaks, unless it's an all day event or something. if we do get breaks it's at the house manager's discretion.

for casual stuff: khaki pants, black shoes, and a maroon polo with the venue logo. for formal events: khaki pants, black shoes, white button down shirt, maroon blazer, and an ugly maroon and gold striped tie.

-Do you have an office or a cubicle? Or do you share a space with others?

n/a

-What do you do when you get out of work?

yes!! It's been ok the last couple of weeks though, plenty to do.

-What do you do when you get bored at work and there's not a whole going on the Ledge?

visit other online forums, or bother other colleagues who're bored too :woohoo:

-Do you have a specific lunch hour at work - or can you take lunch whenever you feel like it?

no specific hour.

-What's the dress code like at your place of work?

umm... pretty casual, I guess. Ladies in my office are my mum's age though, they spend a lot more attention to dressing nice than I do.

-Do you have an office or a cubicle? Or do you share a space with others?

sharing an office with one colleague for most of the time, one day per week another lady joins us.

-What do you do when you get out of work?

chat with my colleagues:D Or eh.. clean up some old stuff. Organise some old stuff. Always plenty of that to do.

-are you happy with the times you go to work/get out of work?

it's ok. wouldn't mind a shorter day. But it's great I can start at nine.

-what would your ideal working hours be?
nine to two :D

nah seriously, I'm often tired from crappy anti epilepsy meds. nine to five I can do, but it's just a little too much. Not a lot of energy afterwards, you know. At my last job I could work nine to three, that was ideal for me. Of course you get paid less though. Well, where's that rich husband/wife when I need one?
