What are some things to think about (occupying a bored mind)?

I work at a factory for 12 hours a day (you can see pictures here. http://www.androidthief.com/work.htm ). After working there for a few months, I have pretty much thought about everything under the sun.. but I know there is so much more. Time goes by a thousand times slower though when I'm not thinking. I just need perhaps some deep thoughts to get my mind rolling. Give me some good deep thoughts i can absorb, or maybe a 'game' i can play. For example, one time i meditated myself into a trance and lost control of my body for a few seconds. that was scary, but interesting. Anything similar to that, or other thoughts you think would occupy a bored mind would be appreciated I realize boredom is a disease of the mind.. but i can only think of stuff for so long in a 12 hour block before it gets repetitive and my brain fries.

That place looks like hell on earth. You must leave! If I were you I would constantly think about getting a different job! (No offense....)

Maybe try to learn a new language. Can you listen to headphones or a little stereo? Conversational Latvian on CD. Or compose music in your head. Write a symphony! Or imagine what you might look like as a woman. What size are your breasts? Do your eyes sparkle? Would you wear Daisy Dukes?

That factory looks like the one Eminem was working in during "8-Mile". Does your supervisor yell out "Up! Down!"?

haha. actually its so loud I can't hear anything. I have to wear earplugs. the press is as loud as a jet engine, if you can picture that. when it starts up it literally makes me cover my ears if i dont have my plugs in. So, music is out of the question.
and my supervisor yells' WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING STANDING THERE. GO GET ME A SANDWHICH"

I used to work at a factory on a twelve hour 3rd shift =P Personally, I leaned against the machines that happened to vibrate and masturbated that way... but even that got old rather quickly.
Something I do occasionally, if you have time to close your eyes, is push your fingers at a diagonal angle into the corners of your eyes (near the nose). It causes my vision to get all cross-eyed for a moment before it's replaced by a quick moving "tunnel" of brownish-yellow and black squares. (similar to the type of tunnel stuff you'd see in a fourth plateau DXM trip and such)
I also enjoy thinking about ways to take over the world, what I'd do if I had no consequences to my actions, etc.
Hope you can make it thru the next couple of weeks. Good luck, hun.

repeat to yourself I will never ever do something like this for $8.50 again. Thats just wrong.
How about who on earth you think is an alien and why and what their motives are...we play this at work sometimes.
