Be careful what you wish for. I once had this kind of job -- well, without the websurfing, because the company (whose name starts with a "P" and ends with "rudential") was so anal that they basically disallowed internet access unless you had special permission -- which I got, but they never did manage to get me set up properly. Anyway, I had literally no work to do, so I'd bring in books and read at my desk and try not to fall asleep. I lasted 4 months...I just really, really hated it. It felt like all my skills were slowly leaking out of my brain the longer I stayed there.
I guess I'm lucky that there's occasional crazybusy to keep me from going nuts, but I may just be the laziest slug on the planet, 'cause I really groove on being paid to read and write and surf. Long live idleness!
