Anybody else bored and lonely at work?

[EvilYoda]

I work in a pretty fun office, but today, one teammate is on vacation while the other two are sick. There are others in the building out on vacation or sick, so the office as a whole is rather quiet (there's only 22 to begin with) and I have absolutely nothing to do.

So, how's everything on your side?

They're not sick or on vacation, they're all out job hunting in preparation of the mass exodus. I feel for you.

Same here. Went from 120 people to less than 60 in less than a year and more cuts are coming.

hah...luckily we don't have that concern here. A few of the sick ones are incredibly out of shape and are consistently sick and it makes me mad.

 

[Mr Pickles]

Man. You don't have anything to do just because people aren't in the office? That would be great!

:sun:

im a little overloaded with work

 

[krunchykrome]

vacation...empty office?

it's not april 15th yet

 

[EvilYoda]

Well, going for 20-odd people to probably 15 feels like a pretty big change.

And I don't have anything to do because we're in the middle of projects...I was supposed to get something new today but the account leader is out sick.

Ive got around 70 files and im not doing anything with them today. I feel like shit. Sorry people, your $$ can wait.

Bosses are out giving presentations this week so I get to work from home

When we have people out, I don't get lonely at all. I enjoy the quiet and get more shit done than usual when I have to deal with interruptions every 5 minutes.

Bored to death. It's been unbelievably slow lately.

 

[Q]

What team do you play for?

Ahh yes, the underwriter.

Now we know why it takes so long for loans to get approved.

You apply Monday at 8:30am
4.5 days of neffing ensues
Your loan is approved Friday at 4:30pm

Bored and getting paid is better than bored after getting laid...off.

My phone will not stop ringing. Wanna switch jobs EY?

Most people have left the office for the day. I have a volleyball game at 6, so I'm hanging out for a bit.
