5 Things All Employees Do at the Office – I Did It, You Do It Too
The human a being seems to lose focus quite a lot when the individual wants to have fun. Let’s face it; we all want to have fun, especially while we’re at work at the office. Lottery players have these traits as well. However, there are some things all employees at the office regardless if they are playing the lottery or not. Even I want to steal a few minutes of my working hours playing a game or even checking my lottery tickets.
Let’s take a look what are these things that people do while they should be earning the boss or the owner some money. You’d be surprised what an employee is capable of doing for months or even years at its work station.
Chronically Being Late for Work – Several Hours per Week
This is not something employees do at the office per se, but they are actually “wasting” their work hours. There are people who are late every single day due to various reasons and usually because the same cliché excuses. Most likely you’ve heard some of these before like “It was the traffic”, or maybe “I had to go to the dentist”, “My car didn’t start” and many, many more. What was the actual reason behind this absence? Only they can tell the truth. As far as I’m concerned, if there are playing the lottery they probably made a stop along the way to buy some lottery tickets.
Surfing the Web, Texting and Making Long Distance Calls
Since Facebook became mainstream people have got a convenient way to communicate with relatives, friends co-workers etc. Not to mention apps like WhatsApp, Skype and Viber which allow us to call, text anyone in the world free of charge. The internet is truly a bliss that benefited the humanity a lot, especially their social lives. You have the humanity’s knowledge in your palm. Your smartphone is the gateway you want and you need to make your working hours shrink.
Before I became a full time lottery player I was working a 9 to 5 job at a local accounting office. It was boring as hell. I hated my job, although I have a degree in accounting. Fortunately lottery got me out of it. How did I end playing the lottery? Well, I was surfing the web and I stumbled upon this thing called online lottery. A few months of online play I got hooked. I started making some serious cash from the lottery and I eventually quit my job. I do not recommend you doing this. I must be honest. I don’t miss my old job.
Shamelessly Procrastinating and Playing Video Games on Smartphones
Yep. It’s real and you know it. That online strategy game you downloaded last night has to be played once in a while; otherwise your opponents will get your resources. “I will just do it this time I promise. It won’t happen again” is the biggest lie, I’ve ever heard. Candy Crush Saga? Yes! People actually play games like this while at work. While you try to be effective and efficient at work some of your colleagues are just killing some time playing rather amusing games and they’re enjoying themselves. Note, try not to be the snitch and just do your own stuff. There will be times when you’re going to take that long break or that long lunch. You don’t want this to get to your manager’s ears, right? You scratch their back, they’ll scratch yours. It’s simple as that.
Here’s a side note. Introduce them to online lottery. Feed them with some tips, give them an advice or two and tell them how you’ve won a big prize while you were at the office. They’ll be interested, trust me. And most importantly, you’re going to have a coworker that plays the lottery. It’d be nice if you can talk with someone about it at the office. Sneaky, isn’t it?
Taking Brief Naps – Sleeping in the Office Does Happen
Now this is possible only if you have your own office. Your own private space where you can just lay back, relax and have that half an hour nap. Last night must have been a blast since you came at work with a hangover. And what can kill a hangover if not a good brief nap. Getting caught at work sleeping in some countries is considered as good. Take a look at Japan. If the manager catches some of the employees sleeping, he/she actually considers the employee as hard working. The employee most likely fell asleep because of exhaustion. However, this shouldn’t be happening on a regular basis.
In the western world, well, this is only a myth. Get caught sleeping at work and you might get the boot. Start updating your CV and beg for that reference.
Playing the Lottery during Work Hours – I Did It, You Do It Too
Well, I mentioned earlier how I got into the lottery. It all began at my work station. I had few colleagues who were playing as well, but we never talked about it. They were rather weird about it. Whenever I asked them for advice I wanted an update on how’re they doing they’d just go away. I didn’t mind since I got quite a lot of good tips from the internet. A few months down the road and I quit. The manager was stunned when I told him I’m leaving because I want to become a full time lottery player. He chuckled and wished me best. He was a great guy I must admit. He even offered me an outstanding job recommendation and he stated that whenever I need something I can give him a call. I guess he wanted to become a full time lottery player as well, who knows.
