Tricky ways to screw off playing games at work?

[Lancer]

Help!

What sort of device will play either civ or asher's 'pocket humanity'?

Can you provide a link? I can spend maybe $400

We had an Australian teacher who managed to do it.

[Lancer]

Anyone thay gets a job teaching 'australian' is likely very adept at screwing off.

[Lancer]

So what machine do you suggest?

[DaShi]

He just used his laptop. I would never do such a thing.

GP32!

I've been playin' CIV on a Super NES emulator lately. Very good, especially since the game is designed for joypad operation. Just conquered the world as the Romans, on chieftain, admitedly.

You could always ask for more responsibility. Or read a book, in my experience authority figures are more forgiving if you read a book instead of screwing around. Especially if it looks like a really difficult read, a lot of people will just gawk.

Clausewitz, Dostojewski, Britney Spears... The deeep stuff.

Tattila, that GP32 looks really interesting. I've been searching for info and the more I find the more I like it. Now I just need to find one in stock.

"A book" Can we be a little constructive here?

My opponent always commits suicide after seeing my first move.

"Most casinos have a hotel portion. Try this, stand under the windows of the hotel and serenade the guests. They will begin throwing things out the window to silence you. Maybe one of the things they throw will be a desk. It's worth a try."

Yes, excellent idea. Sadly, the casino I work at is so new that it doesn't have a hotel. However, if I could suggest a way in which they could afford to build one I might get a promotion that comes with a desk which would allow me to turn it away from people and thereby screw off playing comp games.

I'm thinking I need to find a union guy...someone willing to wisely invest other union guys pensions in a casino...
