I think I'd be terrible if I just had some random office job, but I'll be efficient as a lawyer due to the billing system and the fact that I'll be paid well and treated like I'm important.

yeah I knew this was coming, but expected it more from drewdevil. I was referring more to the superficial stuff like having an office, secretary, etc.

also, going to change this picture to goatse to get you banned.

In my industry, the work comes in waves. Some days, I'll be working 80%+, other days, I work maybe 5%. It mostly leans towards the latter, though.

Besides 2p2, what websites do you lazy asses check out? Some days, I get bored of my standard selection of websites. I need something to do that will make it seem like I'm working to anyone who passes by my cube. I'm thinking about taking up creative writing.

What the hell kind of jobs do you guys have? I'm busy pretty much 100% of the time and I hate working OT so I cram everything into my 8 hour day so I can go home on time. If it's that slow, aren't you worried about getting fired?

I'd say in a given week, I probably do about 15 minutes of real, actual work.

Depends on the day. Most days, <25%. Some days, 75%+. Rarely in the middle though.

Good topic. I would estimate mine at 35%. I've been working for four weeks in the sports department at a newspaper. Thank God for the internet, or I'd be bored as hell most of the time.
