Reply #19: I couldn't do that at my last job, but...

I did have this uncanny ability to know when the boss would be back in the office.

He would often leave to see customers all over the NE area, leaving me and the bookkeeper alone in the office. She would leave at noon each day and I'd be alone.

I would go out back in the warehouse and sneak cigarettes, play games on the computer, and goof off.

I also did some real work in between, but not as diligently as I did when he was there. I had to do lots and lots of multitasking when he was in the office, so I relaxed when he was gone. I often thought he suspected I wasn't really as busy as when he was there, but he could never catch me goofing off, as hard as he tried.

I just somehow KNEW the approximate time he would be back, even though he would try to sneak in without me knowing.
