So I know we all get bored at work every so often and for those of us lucky enough to be in front of a computer with an internet connection we have some options.

So what games do you guys play when you're supposed to be working?

lol,  besides Minesweeper / Solitare and the pre-installed Windows stuff.

Psst...once upon a time I coded a game while at work (for somebody else).  Shhhh.

But no, long since ceased such shenanigans. Bad economy for a job hunt.

used to play tetris and such long ago, more when got free time.
sometime played runescape as it browser game (crafted semi afk by in-out runs LOL)

I don't play games at work, and it's not just because I couldn't even if I wanted. They have our computers and network pretty well locked down.

However, the last time I played a video game at work it was Menzoberranzan.

EDIT: Spelling

I guess it really depends on your job.  Some of us probably do a little more mindelss things that others :P

I'm guessing your job envolves customers?  Mine is basically project based so I work in "me time" into project completion estimates :)

Why are you even playing games at work? Reason its called work...

I can see people saying they do it during break or w/e but that isnt work that be called a break.

Life is too short to give your job 100%.

On the other hand if you love what you do , you got a point.

Ha!  Nice.

One of my first jobs was a temp for about a year at a company that was in the process of being bought out by GE.  After I got comfortable with my duties I was able to complete most of what I had to do in the first couple of hours.  So I just ended up playing the earlier final fantasies on an emulator for the rest of the day for about ten months.  Kind of miss that job.  Actually towards the end my super just told me I could leave if I wanted to after a half day and he would just sign my time cards as if I was there for forty/week.

@OP regarding giving job 100% - in the current economic situation, if I don't give my job 100%, the company can without any difficulties find a dozen others who will. With virtually no vacant jobs around and a mortgage to pay off, giving less than 100% isn't an option. :(

Understandable.  Some of us have cooshier jobs than others for sure.

Maybe try working for the state? lol
