Tony’s Pizza - yummy goodness
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Tony’s Pizza. All opinions are 100% mine.
So, I recently go the chance to sample yummy goodness that I want to tell you about. Now, let me start with this - I love me some pizza. I mean, gooey hot yummy cheese and tasty pepperonis. Yum, yum, yum is what I say! I also love to eat things like pepperoni rolls and calzones. Obviously I really love me some pizza and all things similar to it, you know? Now I do not like all pizza. I am a bit picky when it comes to eating pizza and I have very strong likes and dislikes. So when I got the chance to try some Tony’s Pizza I admit that I was a bit skeptical. It is not my normal pizza brand when I buy frozen pizzas from the grocery store. Of course, now that I think about it my normal brand became that because it is always the cheapest! Anyways, I wasn’t really sure what to expect but I gave it a try and invited some of my peeps over for a viewing party for “Lost” and we chowed down on some Tony’s Pizza. They will eat anything so I was not worried about that just more about me and my tastes. But you know what? The crust cooked up real crispy like I like it and there was a good amount of that gooey cheese like I like. What I can I say? It tasted pretty darn good and it was a hit at the party! So easy to just toss it in the oven too! Why not give it a try at your next party or get together? I can hook you up with some coupons if you holla!
Slacker Tip #208 - Get Past Your Company’s Firewall
When it comes to work-related mischief, nothing is more aggravating than trying to surf the ‘net on company time only to realize that the security settings on your computer prevent you from pulling up half of the sites where you want to waste time.
Except for maybe going to a proxy server to get around the firewall and discovering that the company has blocked the proxies too.
You can start fiddling with the settings on the Internet Security tab if you think you’ve got the stuff. But turn off the wrong thing and see how much attention that gets you. Not that it’s not worth the risk. If you change your settings and return to your browser to discover that you have regained access to Facebook and all of your favorite porn sites, you will feel both deliriously happy and validated in your awesomeness.
But why put so much effort into something that can be accomplished with so little. Before you go all IT-Ninja on your computer settings, why not try just downloading a new browser. Generally-speaking, work computers have only one browser installed, usually Internet Explorer, and the Internet security settings are all linked to that browser. So, pop on over to the download page for Google Chrome or FireFox and nab a new browser.
It’s possible that your company has prepared for such anarchy, but that would be more work. Do you really think the guys in IT are any more motivated than you?

Slacker Tip #207 - Send a co-worker flowers. Anonymously.
In my experience the busy body co-worker that is always trying to catch you slacking off is female. I’ve had loads of jobs and that’s just the truth. Every single time someone has been out to get me fired for “not being a team player” or “not pulling my weight for the team” it has been a woman. Most, but not all of the time, this person has been what I like to call a frau. I imagine that this person goes home to a house full of 312 cats & their geriatric monther and eats TV dinners with them while knitting little kitten booties for each of cats.
Anyways, this person is usually the type of person that no one would be interested in romantically. At least no one in their right mind. I mean, really, who likes a tattle tale?
So, now that Valentine’s day is over you might be able to find some cheap flowers. I say send something to this pain in the ass co-worker - but DON’T sign your name! Make it like a secret admirer type of thing. If all goes as planned everyone in the office will spend most of the day chatting away with this co-worker - at her desk. That will keep her occupied and out of your hair.
Now the question is this - how much is this worth to you? Cause you could pull this shit weekly. Or even send stuff to different co-workers. Ah, good times.
Work means never buying office supplies for your home
If you have to go to work, you may as well get something out of it besides a paycheck, right? Because I guarantee that you are getting underpaid for what you do. Well, what you are supposed to be doing that is.
For me, work means never having to buy my own office supplies. In fact, I think I have a lifetime supply of assorted colors and sizes post-it notes as well as pens, pencils, staples, rolls of scotch tape and other miscellany items. I like to think of it as a work perk.
Slacker tip #206 - Want to play games on the internet at work?
Sometimes at work you don’t want to read TMZ, you don’t want to be on Facebook and you don’t want to be working on your blog. You just wanna get in some gaming. If you’re really bored at work any type of gaming will do. Of course, there is one problem with this. Gaming websites are almost always blocked at work.
Fortunately you can find games that are not blocked and get your gaming on. Check out your local radio station’s website. There is a pretty decent chance that they have some games on the site. For example 104.3 MyFM in Los Angeles has a selection of games on their website under “MyClub,” which is there listener rewards program. See if your local radio station has games on their website for you to play at work too!

Being Sick Excuse #56 - Had to Take Vicodin For Pain & Can’t Drive
Okay, so this excuse may be a stretch but hear me out on this one.
My sister-in-law was just telling me a story about a sinus infection that got down in the roots of her teeth that was so painful that she had to take vicodin. Can this really happen or is she full of shit? I have no clue, but it did give me a great idea for an excuse.
Make up a reason for severe pain - any reason for it - and call in that you have to take vicodin for it and that makes you unable to drive (or function). No boss in their right mind would want someone at work that is on vicodin anyways. So, score!
