you do realize as an intern they don't expect you to work 24/7 in data entry, right? My boss always tells me to take a break and stuff because they know how mind-numbing data entry can be.

Originally posted by Anti-Polar BearRetail guy, i know you are a boss yourself, and you probably installed hidden cameras at the office to spy on your employees, but here i dont think theres any hidden camera.

No need to install cameras Tank. I was an employee, and still am to lots of clients.... I know what they are doing, that's the same thing I was doing when I was someones employee. It is just a fact of life.
Today, I try to motivate people to want to do their jobs, by recognizing accomplishment and delegating "fun" things too. It works with some, and doesn't with others. They typically move along rather quickly.
I know I've poked a bit of fun at you, but I am enjoying your escapades.
Just be careful, big brother can be watching without cameras. If they've got IT people, they've probably got computer logs of what you are visiting and how much time you're working.

Yes, my boss is like yours too. When I worked the burger joint in HS (how else could i have gotten money to buy weed? Once my parents found out i am buying the good stuff with my allowance, they stopped giving me money) , the boss there never give us a break. We jsut work and work and then go to lunch/dinner and then work and work again.Originally posted by Partialyou do realize as an intern they don't expect you to work 24/7 in data entry, right?

This is not bad, compared to then (though then i only worked part time).

how big is the company? no way are they checking it if its a big company. Like there are thousands of people at this office that i'm in right now, and I know for a fact the IT people don't check what I do (I worked in IT for the company last summer).

Not big. My guess is, 40-60 employees (i work wtih the finance/accounting department, so i have no clue about the exact number). We only have 3-4 IT people, i think.Originally posted by Partialhow big is the company? no way are they checking it if its a big company.

On a side note, this little beauty does the 1/4 mile a full three seconds quicker than his minivan.

Waaaayyyy too expensive. Lunch and ice cream have a better effect on morale, they're a lot cheaper and a lot more fun....Originally posted by NutzRetailguy brings in fellas like this to motivate his employees, and to spark excitement and fun in the work place!
Just try showing up at the office with ice cream sundaes for everyone when it is 80 degrees outside. Nobody is ever on a "diet" at that moment.
I don't like Anthony Robbins, but some of the other guys are OK. I'm much more receptive to those types of things if the employee brings it to me with a good reason.
