   • Passing time at work for me is no problem at all- I have a TV/Dvd player and a Sky + box on my desk- a library of dvds, a pub down the road and a full pack of smokes- currently breaking myself in to the day with the film stakeout!

   • You are all office scum
     To pass the time at work I get to park up at a service station and have a fag, park up at a customers house and wait by listening to the radio, or when I'm back at the store, sit in the smoke shelter and have a fag.
     If I'm feeling particularly bored I might read the vans service manual. Thats how I found out we are 2 times over the milage for a service and what all the error codes for the freezer unit is. Not that it ever breaks on the new vans anyway.
     
     I gotta start taking the paper or a book out on the road with me cos we are so short on orders thanks to the summer holidays I'm finishing like 3 hours early and getting sent home. I dont get paid for that I mean I dont mind going home early (nowt worse than finshing after 9 at night after driving all day to have to drive home) but not when I'm looking at loosing 150 quid a month in wages.
     
     I won't even be able to park up for to long soon though cos they are putting fucking trackers on the vans so can't do nowt. Bastards.

    • I try to control my breathing so I don't have a heart attack under the mountain of stress and mental people that weigh me down.
      
      I also read ninehertz and plan my home DIY
      
      Sometimes I treat myself to a tommy tank in the toilets.

    • 99 percent of customers in the shop where I work are wankers.
      Quite literally , I sell hardcore pornography.
      I also have a part time job in a supermarket. Everybody there is just a cunt.
      I often pass the long, lonely hours in work wondering where the hell I went wrong and why I'm working for minimum wage at 28 years old , why didnt I pay attention in school , when will I grow up , why can't I grow a beard, why am I alive, why am I so horrible to people when I actually like them etc..
      That and drinking tea and listening to radio4 anyway.

      Crazy Dealer
      
      
      Las Vegas style, the cats are going wild
      Down on the strip, they like to get there kicks
      Coin in the slot, The chicks are looking hot
      
      When all’s said and done, It just a bit of fun…..
      
      Crazy….Dealer
      Crazy…. Dealer
      Crazy….Dealer
      Crazy….Dealer
      
      Sharp suited man, looking for a good hand
      Whiskey and ice, sets him up for the night
      Looks for the win, the wheel begins to spin
      
      When all’s said and done, It just a bit of fun……
      
      Crazy….Dealer
      Crazy…. Dealer
      Crazy….Dealer
      Crazy….Dealer
      
      (Goes kind of slow like something from an Ozzy solo album and I can just about reach the high notes. I sing the bit bellow)
      
      They call me the Crazy Dealer, but they don’t know
      I’m not a rock and roll healer, I’m just and average Joe
      People say it can’t be easy, to rock a show
      I just get on with the rocking, and try not to blow
      
      (Picks up again in to the verse riff and a tasty guitar SOLO shreds over it.)
      
      
      When all’s said and done, It just a bit of fun……
      
      Crazy….Dealer

      a friend of my mum's was (i think) the manager of that very section for many years, and might, in fact, still work there. i won't tell him though.
