Wish I had internet at work... I'm currently wasting time with origami.

I have lots of boats and ducks and frogs filling my locker.

I also waste time doing pratical jokes on fellow employees (the worst involving a squirt gun filled with mayonaise).
-thanking god I have internet at work-
I'm an internet research assistant at a research firm. I have to go look up obscure things for obscure people. This means I do about 5 hours of work in any given week, the rest I burn on the internet. Now at home, I play computer games in the weekday evenings, a little TV and book reading before bed, and RPG on the weekends...
Want to the hilarious thing? The way some IT admin around here figured out how to pay us... The search tools we use for research log bandwidth usage. We get paid by how much bandwidth we use for research...
Boy howdy, there's some interesting things on the web, let me tell you. Go to Ebay and type in 'bride' and hit search, just for example...
I can use these search tools and find just about anything. About once a month, we have a 'research technician monthly status meeting'. Supposedly, we discuss methods of search, and new reference web sites. In reality, we discuss the 'oddest' research questions we've gotten that month, and hold a little mini-contest

.
I won one month with a 15 hour research project into Pre-1900 Russian recipes involving the liver of a bear.
That was odd.
Can ye tell I'm BORED!
