People would rather be electrically shocked than left alone with their thoughts

For 15 minutes, the team left participants alone in a lab room in which they could push a button and shock themselves if they wanted to. The results were startling: Even though all participants had previously stated that they would pay money to avoid being shocked with electricity, 67% of men and 25% of women chose to inflict it on themselves rather than just sit there quietly and think

Take about 4, and start dating a hipster chick who probably can come off 2 Adipex a day. One around 9:30am and the other at about 2pm.

I'd love such a job. I'd read books, do Rosetta Stone, ponder the universe. I love to read though.

You'll probably gain 20 or so in the first year.

Had a similar job when I was in BR, that's when I found the OT. It was a life saver, kept me awake on the night shift.

I work from home. It was great at first but now it's not all it's cracked up to be. I get bored as frick when things are slow and get tired of being at my own house all day and night. I am actually moving into an office I rented on July 1st just to break the monotony of being at home but I am afraid I will just trade being bored at home for being bored somewhere else.

I could do it for probably 40 years or so. And then retire.

I was on a project for about 1.5 yrs in which someone would bring me a stack of P&IDs, I looked over them to see if there were mistakes and then had to go into the database and make the corrections, I would get done all at one, it would take me about 3 hrs to go through the stacks then make the changes then for six hrs a day I had nothing to do. Every once in awhile I would have to do something else, but whatever it was it wasn't anything time consuming. I use to spend a lot of time on here.

I hate to be bored.
That's why I'm on TD at work.
When it's busy everybody laughs b/c I tell them I'm falling behind on my posts.
