Faking Work Idea #3: Reading Magazines

How can you safely read a magazine at work without getting noticed? This is a question that all cube monkey's have asked from time to time. The most effective method I've seen is to put the magazine in a manilla folder.

Sit in your uncomfortable cube chair, facing your cube opening. Open the manilla folder containing your magazine and start reading. When your boss walks by you will look like you are reading important work documents within the folder.

Important Note: Always keep a few "real" work papers sitting on your desk and occassionally glance at them while reading your magazine. This will give everyone the impression that you are referencing other documentation while reading the important "documents" in the folder.

If you use this or any other faking work idea on this site, you assume all the risks. There is a chance you can get caught and get fired. I am not responsible if you get fired. These ideas are for entertainment purposes only.
