isitafox Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Well if it isn't already obvious I've started this thread because I'm B-O-R-E-D! Having an unbelievably steady job like this is sometimes a godsend but other times a right pain in the arse! The last few hours have dragged like mad in here, mainly cause last week on nights I brought bike stuff in to play with whereas today I have nothing. Due to this other than putting a £40 order in at Tartybikes which probably wasn't necessary I've managed to eat almost a full pack of digestives, 4 massive pieces of flapjack, an apple, 2 tins of tommy soup with a tin of tuna mixed in and 4 plain burgers. Also managed a shoulder and bicep session with my dumbells and watched GET2 again on my phone, roll on 10pm!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bikeperson45 Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Good old Gameboys are a fun way to pass the time, maybe play some Pokemon Yellow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted October 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Whats your job? Railway signaller, scandalously good job for the wages to work ratio but if you don't bring something to do with you it can get boring, especially round here! Good old Gameboys are a fun way to pass the time, maybe play some Pokemon Yellow. I have got Blue and Silver in a box in the loft, got all of them on the Blue as well but as I left them for so long without playing the batteries are completely dead so you can't save the game. Tried a while ago but no luck, and I can't justify buying a DS as I used to have one and a PSP but sold both cause I never used them!!

isitafox Posted October 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Good spec laptop & some music production software. Getting paid to practice music production - I wish! Would love to bring the laptop in and have a play myself as I've got all the time in the world but this is classed as a safety critical job there's a ban on LOADS of stuff, not allowed to bring in or have turned on radios, phones, laptops, dvd players, tvs, etc, etc.... but most have a radio they chuck in the locker when people come to the box. They give us restricted acces to the net though to stop us sleeping on nights but not allowed near youtube, facebook and the like so it's not much of an incentive to be awake really. Hence the reason I'm on here for 7-8 hours most days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t-comp-kierz Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 as a safety critical job there's a ban on LOADS of stuff, not allowed to bring in or have turned on radios, phones, laptops, dvd players, tvs, etc, etc.... Your not allowed a laptop, but you are allowed to take in an angle grinder and grind your rim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncy H Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Learn to play an instrument? I recently decided to have a go at guitar and have loved it, it's a great hobby to have to spend up some spare time. I'm sure I just had another better idea but vie forgot sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
