Forgot one... when the tape is out, there is no doubt. As long as your tape is extended, your gonna get commended. Just random measuring with a frustrated face. Works everytime 👍

[@thomasmitchell4128]

Correct. Props. Always carry a prop. Tape works best but each job is different. Carry a scowl and a prop and walk around like you're about to chew someone's ass off for fucking up and people will leave you alone for weeks. What if someone asks you what you're doing? Remember that scowl you're carrying around on your face? Here's where that bad boy really comes into play. Use it. You're so mad you can't even make full sentences. Make the person who asked you something regret slowing you down because You Are On A Mission. My go to prop was a clipboard with peoples names on it, split into two groups. What do the groups mean? Absolutely nothing, and you know that. What do the two groups mean to people who are on the list? They mean everything to them and they fear the worst. Say you're stomping around and someone stops to ask you a question. Stare at them for a second then in a frustrated manner erase their name from one group and move it to the other group. Ask the person their name just to be sure, that'll get their attention. Keep in mind, only do this if you're higher up on the totem pole, otherwise you'll probably get ran off.

[@MrJinglejanglejingle]

Here's one from our boys that Sham proudly in the military; Grab a clipboard, a pen, and start walking about. Write stuff down that might seem important for later, but isn't. Y'know, like... "Tacklebox: 2nd Time". People'll ask, "What does that mean, 2nd time?" Then you hit 'em with the "Not important for you to know." If its a boss-man? "I'm keeping track of his progress and any mistakes he's making, so we can help him on it at the end of the year". If you think a year is too much, try "finished on the job site". Boss-man'll probably think that's a good idea, and I'm sure Tacklebox or anyone else you're "monitoring" will fuck up at some point to justify your "2nd time". If the job goes on for long enough, you may never even need to bring this shit up again. Oh, another I remembered! Grab a few pieces of paper with some important-looking bullshit on it. Spreadsheet, a bunch of other shit, just stuff that looks important. Then? Look *PISSED* and I mean it. Be stomp-walking, maybe swear a few times, especially when you know nobody is looking, but someone might be listening... And then find a place that you can go into that has no way to look inside or something... And go in. Maybe scout it beforehand. Some part of the building that's finished, or apart of the job site that nobody ever goes into... You'll know it well enough if you never see anyone go into it. Use other methods to stick around nearby, to see who goes into it, and at what times. Try and scout it for a week, if your job site is gonna go for months longer. THEN, once you have your spot, your papers, and your pissed off look? March in there, close the door behind you loudly, and... Take a nap. If you can, lock the door.

Big thing I do at work (in a mill) is re-read run sheets, JSA's, SDS's, tally sheets, whatever. Can take 15 minutes just letting my eyes glaze over. A lot of the time someone else will come take a look at the sheet and actually grab info off of it and run off to do something with it, which makes it look like I'm really trying to get the information in because obviously that guy doesn't fucking know it off by heart. Especially good if I can take charge after a changeover and say "alright we're gonna need this, can you go grab it? Alright, I'll set this up, hey can you get that set up? Ah shit has anyone seen the thing? No? Alright shit you set this up I'm gonna find the thing" and I get another 20 minutes looking for something when I already know where it is.

I tell you what I'm a real hard working guy and after years of hard work ive gotten a job watching a robot do the work for me and I just help it out when it messes something up. I'm now getting paid more then I ever have. I had to look deep inside myself and find the lazy part of me I stamped out years and years ago, I asked him how do I keep this lovely job? Working constantly even though there's literally nothing to do

I remember I literally started smoking so i can take unlimited breaks at work. I'd go outside over 10 times a day. If I was smoking a cigarette nobody said a word. If I wasn't then I was immediately asked what I was doing and why wasn't I working. So every hour I went outside for 10 mins to smoke a cigarette lol..... I have since quit that job and I no longer smoke cigarettes

Another tip: fake phone calls and to really sell it, every minute or two just point in a random direction like you're describing where something is or twist your hand open like you're talking with your hands and gesturing "why would they do that, that doesn't make any sense" works like a charm

I make it look like im working and focusing really hard at work when staring at my monitor and im really watching youtube. I have people walk by all the time saying, "wow you look focused" lol FOOLS!

[@calebduke8948]

Good ideas but damn sometimes I wear myself out more trying to look busy than doing the actual work😂😂

[@PolishBehemoth]

thats part of the job. the goal is to keep the job at all costs. missions accomplished.

When you’re fixing the equipment make sure to blame the last guy to use it. “It worked yesterday, until tackle box used it!”

[@Partylifeblack]

This is perfectly accurate 😂
