I people watch, work on come backs, think how I'd do something
differently than the teacher, and doodle strange pictures (I can't
draw) that I'll have to throw away anyway.

On road trips or other commutes, we play license plat phrases. For
instance, WVH could translate into "Wild Vixens Here."

So is your job sucky and what do you do to work around it?

cats teaching the class

I never had a sucky job. I did, however, have jobs where I had to work
with sucky people. This was back in the days of the Walkman. I used to
put those headphones on sometimes when I didn't even have the music
on.
I found that people wouldn't talk to me that way.

Hard to do when your job is software tech support ;) We weren't allowed to
wear anything but telephone head-sets. We were, however, allowed to have a
radio playing music *low* in our individual cubicles. Didn't really help
much. But I did love that job :)
