Slacker tip #128 - bring in treats for the office gluttons
If you work in an office then you already know about the mystical powers of free food on the communal table or filing cabinet top. No office is immune to the power of free food. And every office is chock full of people waiting to play their part in the production of office gluttony.
The holiday season is the perfect time to take notice of this. Last week most of the people at my job spent the majority of their day back by the filing cabinet where the food spread was laid out. It consisted of all sorts of sugary snacks from clients that had sent them to the office.
Once the holidays are over though there is a long dry spell of office gluttony. However, you could bring it back.
Just stop by the local Krispy Kreme and bring in a couple dozen glazed for the office. Not only will they love you and likely look the other way when they see you playing online, but they will probably be too busy eating to notice!
If your computer screen is within direct viewing of the snackie table, then this is not a good tip for you. If that is the case, you need to hoard all the food from the snackie table so that no one will be there and have a chance to see your screen.
