I work but I don't work

OK, this is crazy! I hope no one finds me but I had to blog about this cause I set here in a large corporate company and do nothing almost 95% of my day!

I will ask my bosses and coworkers for something to do and I get one or two items. I'm done and that's it!
I'm sure there are folks out there who do five times more than me and get less than me.
It's seriously very sad!

    Me too, and I really do feel guilty about it! I am more than willing to help with anything, but my bosses are so busy, they can't seem to find time to delegate the work!

    I know the feeling. I do what is handed to me but it doesn't take to much of my time. It makes the day drag by when there is nothing to do and I am miserable sitting at my desk.

    Some days its the same for me. I would rather be busy and running around but there's literally nothing for me to do. I don't complain. I love the people I work with and I make good money for doing nothing... It's great. :) I see this time (while I finish school) as preparing myself slowly for working the rest of my life. Baby step, baby steps. LOL

    same here i work full time doing a part time job, that is part time work. sometimes i feel that i want a job where i am needed and what i do is actually important and helps the company make money. but i should just be happy that i have a job right now, which i am but i know i am smarting then just making coffee, filing, cleaning the cat box (i hate cats) etc. , i am 24 year old woman doing a 15 year olds job. i have had many jobs and i believe i am perfectly capable of doing any task given to me, just need more of a challenge and stimulation.

    ME TOO ME TOO! Doesnt it suck to feel guilty about getting paid to do nothing. I like read books but then I worry that I will be frowned upon for doing that, but hey...they havent given me anything to do, right?! I am starting an eCommerce business, so I usually spend all day doing that.
