Hello mylotters! During the work, it is normal for human being to be boring. In that situation, the most frequent thing for me to do is to listen to the radio or music. It can relax my mind and even the lyrics can help to persuade me to do a good work. What about you guys? What are you doing if you feel boring with your work? share with me and probably I will try your method if it is interesting. Happy mylotting!

I think if we play games too much, it will be tiring for us. How do you think?

our breaks are not that long so it will not be tiring for me to play, it just keeps me entertained. our breaks are mostly 30 to 45 minutes, and before i play games i will still get coffee or juice on go to the lavatory if i need to. so mostly i play only 25 to 15 minutes so it is not tiring

In our office we are not permitted to listen to the radio or music during work. So when I get bored, specially in the afternoons when I feel sleepy too, I am here at mylot or maybe I play some games or take a short walk. Sometimes I go to the canteen and have some coffee

Yup, it is a good idea too to spend your time playing game or mylotting as long as it is okay according to the company's ethics.

Well, there are a lot of stuffs which you can do while you feel bored. When I feel bored I just like open up come magazines and start reading. Or just turn on the TV and watch some comedy channels. I also like playing PSP and Nintendo DS while I get bored. I also like listening to some music while I feel bored. Rock musics are very good when you fell bored, they just like energize you. And another way to kill your boredom is by posting in Mylot. Cause you actually earn money here by having fun.

If I feel bored with my work, I just sleep. I think it helps relieve my stress and my boredom. haha.. I also listen to music, and I also talk to my co-workers sometimes. If I have the access to the internet, I work online or I chat with my friends.

create something, I dont know. If you have talent for the music, then you can write a song. It depends in the talents that do you have, but spending time creating something is really stimulating

My way to kill bordom is to watch some lateset movies, or chat online by skype etc. Another typical way is to go book-shopping in some bookshops, buy some books and put them on my small bookshelves, and pick up and read one of the books. or perhaps talk to some friend may help.

I play games :D online games, actually. Somtimes I'd play games on facebook or poker in TripleJack. Then I'd try to beat my personal best scores in order to make it more interesting. And if some of my office mates are also bored, sometimes we'd all get into one game together :D Thanks for the response on my discussion!

hi, I almost forget how to feel bored. A few years ago, I often felt bored especially during vacations and festivals, I used to hate festivals cause they are not the right time to hang out with classmates and playmate. Now, I grow up, I mean mentality matures, I feel time is so limited to me, I have lot of things to do online. for example, writing mylot posts, listening BBC, VOA news, watching tv shows, tv plays, and movies. searching good website for problem solution, talking with friends via QQ chat tool and when offline, I read my mount of books, I love reading and studying. My schedule is very very full. I like my life that way.

Hello,Masata. When i feel boring,i want to talk it with my friends if they are on line.But i don't phone them,due to i'm worried about that i will cry when i hear their voice to comfort me.Or i will play some QQ games,listen to the music,and watch movie on the computer. Sometimes i want to sleep,if i don't want to speak anything at that moment.When i wake up,everything is ok.It seems that i posted many similiar methods to friends in mylot when i heard that they are depressed or not happy.But i still want to say,just want you who are boring and depressed people have a try,try to take a walk,do some sports,write it down,talk with friends,readbooks ,watch TV or movie,go shopping,do cooking,write it down......

Hello star_wish, Yup, mylot can be an effective place to release the boreness :D. But too much mylotting will keep us away from our work which is not good either.. Thanks for responding!

I used to go online or send e-mails, but the rules got tightened so I couldn't do that any more, so I started taking my crochet, so then they told me I couldn't crochet at my desk anymore because it made customers think we didn't have anything to do. So I started bringing a book to read. That was not good either...to tell you the truth, shortly after that, I quit...after 9 years there, I just couldn't handle them any more.

I think employers should think carefully about the restriction in work place. It is for the employee's welfare to have some breaks so that they can work more effectively. Thanks for responding and sharing your experience to me.
