I have a job until Christmas!

[cranberryjampots]

and its killing me! My belief that I am now unemployable is 100% correct

My sister asked if I could work as her receptionist for 2 weeks but nothing could prepare me for the boredom - Im only working 5 hours a day (school hours) and it honeslty feels like 10! How do people in permanent boring jobs get through the day? The only good thing is the money is excellent

Can you take a book or mumsnet while you are there? Enjoy the money...!

are you allowed to sneak a decent book/mag in for reading during quiet periods?

aren;t you supposed to do your nails...?

boring is better than stressful

I know my sister looks on the history and through other parts of the computer to see what sites the receptionist has been on (I personally dont agree with this) so have restrained from using MN

she hasnt told anyone other than her assistant that Im her sister and one of her clients (she runs serviced offices) went in yesterday and said to the assistant "that receptionist is a miserable cow". Angie was there too and didnt say anything. Her assistant said "Oh no she's lovely and really helpful" Then the client said "Well I think she's miserable and when I next go out there Im going to stick my nose in the air and walk past her"

On Friday Angie is going to introduce me to all the clients and tell them Im her sister!

perhaps you could play see how bad you can be without actually getting sacked

try working 12 hours sat infront of metal detectors waiting for people any person to come through them. ZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
