Slacker tip #53 - check their calendar
Ever wonder when your boss will be in meetings or out for the day? Try checking their outlook calendar.

A must have for the slacker arsenal
Need a fake phone number that is sorta real? Maybe for your excuse note?
Look no further. Well, just one place further. Net Zero’s PrivatePhone  is free voicemail! And unless you live in East Bumblefuck you can probably get a local number for said voicemail.
I know what you’re thinking - but I don’t work for Net [...]
Slacker tip #52 - take suggestions from others
I’d like to point out some exceptionally good tips from one of our commenters. Mudgie left the following tidbits of brilliance that I thought must be shared for those of you who missed the comments:
I like to annoy my co-workers with computer-based things:

Temp jobs and getting unemployment, tip #1
While this slacker loves coming to work and getting paid to play on the internet and talk on the phone all day, there comes a time when the love affair ends. Now is that time. I’d much rather sleep in and collect unemployment for a few months. So, I have started trying to get fired [...]
Slacker tip #51 - sabatoge the office in 3 steps
If you work in an office like mine, of the things standing between you and the art of getting paid to do nothing is some busybody that likes to bring you things to do. Shame on them!

Yes, that’s right, you [...]
Temp jobs and getting unemployment
As you all know (and if you don’t well, go back to special ed.) getting unemployment is the most rewarding way to get paid to do nothing. You get to sleep in, stay in your pj’s all day, watch porn if you want, play video games, whatever….and you get paid weekly. Sure, it’s not the [...]

Stay tuned for a new series of articles starting this week focused on using temp jobs to get unemployment benefits.
You can thank us later when you’re sitting in your Captain America undies watching cartoons all day and getting those unemployment checks in the mail.
Slacker tip #50 - turn 15 minute breaks into infinity, well, sorta
If there is one thing I am thankful for at work it is those too-damn-short 15 minute breaks in the morning and afternoon. But I curse the bastard that said we should only get two of those a day. That’s not nearly enough. That’s why I like to take breaks more than I actually work.

Slacker tip #49 - size does matter
So, there you are, sitting at work. You’re supposed to be doing something productive, like data entry. Instead, you’re on the internet. You have internet explorer open in a tiny little window, and you think that’s clever.
You are so wrong.
Let’s think about it for a minute…
Okay, when you are doing data entry, you’re not doing [...]
How to be the laziest person in the office & get away with it
We’re all about being the laziest person in the office and getting away with it. In fact, we strive to get overtime pay each week for hours we didn’t really work. Cause really, why just get paid to do nothing when you can get paid time and a half to do nothing.
Some people learn better [...]
