Question Got nothing to do

Since my company is in a severe financial situation and 95% of our customers have got elsewhere, I have not had much to do.

I have handed in my notice, so I have 4.5 days of work to fill with about 2 phone calls a day.

So, what can I do? Any interesting websites I can visit which will keep me occupied? Games?

I'm dying of boredom here!

Cheers
Clare

Thanks, great idea. Can make some money too!

But seriously, have done the usual pistonheads, sniffpetrol, cliosport, ebay, ordered loads of stuff from argos additions, dorothy perkins online..... Why is it when you're bored you spend money!?

But I don't have a pug do I? Clionet is a good resource for all things clio, but not exactly "jumping" partywise.

Same with the PGAC, it's good for Pug stuff but no stuff like on NSR on here which is worth a read.

I may not get paid, that is the risk you take when you work for a company with severe financial problems. I feel sorry for the people still here. The girls I work for are not entitled to any redundancy pay and neither would I have been.

I can't wait to start my new job cos not having anything to do is proper boring.......

Just trying to make you smile.

Sorry to hear. Good luck with a better job in the near future!
