How many here work at a desk or cubicle all day long?

and how do y'all do it?
I've never had a desk job in my life, and I just got offered a great job with a huge company.....but I'd be sitting down at a desk from 9-5.
It'd be pretty dumb to turn down such a great opportunity, but I think I'd go crazy after 3 days.

Healthy snacks, headphones, coffee and my phone. Oh and I try to work as well. It's really not bad. I work 7:30 til at least 5. Salary at that.

You don't have to sit the entire time. You get up to get coffee, shoot the shite with someone, take a shite by yourself, get an hour+ for lunch,

I couldn't do that cubicle shite, but my own office with a door that shuts? Yeah, I could occupy myself if the money was good enough.

Most days I'm in the office but from time to time I have to go out in the field. You get use to it.

I don't have a cubicle but I'm at my desk all day

It's not bad, if you stay busy. If you don't have shite to do, it drags.

It is not bad...believe it or not, there is a pretty good bit of variety in that you are generally answering e-mails and dealing with telephone calls while you are doing your other work....every once in a while you have to get up to get coffee or piss and chat a bit along the way...generally, if you are in an office type environment, there is not anyone watching you every second of the day so you can frick off a little if you want...

I'm all around the plant during my shifts.

I do for the most part. Sometimes I do tours or walk apartments, but it is mostly a sit at a computer job all day.
Everyone on here knows how I deal with it...
I bitch and complain
But seriously, playing on the ot helps.

My job has been swapping out the little blonde girls that sit next to me every 6 months, kind of like a plant service, keeps it fresh.

I do. I've gained a few pounds in the last 5 years. I miss working in the field sometimes but then I think about the ridiculous schedule I was working and I quickly forget about it

I have a desk. Real jobs keep you pretty busy. If you think you'll be bored, then you're probably just free-riding into the office.

Since the mass adoption of the Internet, desk jobs have gotten a hell of lot better.

The transition from working in the field and driving here and there and just being out and about was difficult, at times, but I got used to it. I still have to get up once every hour or so, depending on how busy I am though.

I dream of having a cubicle and doing TPS reports
Posted on 7/27/14 at 7:48 pm to UFownstSECsince1950
Headphones and closing my door to fap
