How I Skive Off WorkAdmit it. No one does any work these days. It's all looking at crappy websites with your thumb hanging over alt tab incase the boss walks over. Tell us your best methods of skiving, and any resultant incidents. (Maybe your slacking off has got someone sacked, or resulted in a large scale industrial accident.)

Working for 2 companies at once...Company A pays me to work on-site at Company B.
If I want to leave early or skive, all I have to do is say I have a meeting at the 'other company' and off I go - works every time.
Company A thinks company B is being demanding and feels sorry for me, and company B assume I'm working at company A anyway so don't wonder why I'm not there...
And the best bit - if they want to check up on me, they have to call my mobile (no office phone, see) so I reject the call, go to a quiet place, and call back and say i just popped to the loo.
Never fails - unfortunately, my conscience usually gets the better of me and the skiving never goes beyond silent scheming and hand-rubbing. Damn my parents.
