Antiwork

I work at a specialty pharmacy with controlled substances and they’ve just told us that we can’t have “personal belongings” in our company-approved 8x10x2 inch bags beyond paper and writing utensils, mp3 players, headphones/earbuds, and tools for work.

What are some things I might get away with doing during my downtime besides music, podcasts, and audiobooks? TIA

The performers at Medieval Times in Buena Park are on strike. They have been on strike for over 115 days fighting against animal abuse, sexual harassment and low wages.

But guess who's still at work bc I need the $10 an hour to be able to afford the meds to take care of this. But working front of house when you can't talk or really even move really sucks.
