I think there is a dichotomy in every work place between people who want to do only their jobs or less and those who want to constantly be working. I like to think I fall in the latter group, but I'm sure we all have moments in both groups. Today, I felt useless. I spent maybe two hours of my seven hour shift working. I tried to be semi-productive with the other 5 hours, but... it didn't go so well. List time!
What productive things did I do?
I proof read the new residence hall handbook, and made a few changes.
I gave the handbook to my bosses supervisor to proofread.
I searched/found more pictures to put in the handbook.
I set-up a possible online form for new student group registration.
I added one student's information into the housing database.
Semi-productive?
I took a lunch break.
I transferred one call.
I sent a mass email to incoming students.
I read some articles on Residence Assistance.
I got the mail.
I ordered my father's Father's Day presents (probably not considered productive according to my contract, but it was to me.)
Not productive?
I was on Facebook.
I was on Ebay.
I'm writing this blog.
I still have another hour to go. I guess I shouldn't complain... but now I have. I hope everyone working right now is having a more productive day than I.
Also, my feet hurt.
