Sneaking In Bingo While At Work

While violating any company’s internet usage policy these days is a great way to get sacked, padding the personal bottom line with some bingo winnings could make a little risk completely worth it. Not to mention the fact that a little bingo can often save your sanity some days. Everyone needs a break now and then! Seasoned online bingo players know for a fact that some of the best bingo games are designed with the homemaker in mind but why should they have all the fun? With a little creativity, you too can sneak in some bingo time while at work.

Mobile Bingo

While it may seem like the most obvious choice, it may not actually be the best. Sure, you can play bingo from a good quality mobile device and you have zero risk of violating any internet usage policies but some of the thrill is lost on mobile bingo sites. Think to yourself, do you really want to run multiple cards on a tiny screen? Even the best smart phone has a screen that is not even 1/10th the size of a computer screen. However, it is better than nothing and if your company is so strict that bingo sites are banned, you may have to run with it.

Earn Your Boss’s Respect as You Sneak Bingo

If there is a big bingo match coming up, move your lunch break and bring a lunch. This saves money and you look like you are sucking up to the boss by taking a working lunch. Many companies will look the other way on the internet usage if you are on your lunch break. It looks like work but is really play time with benefits.

Super Secret Spy Stuff

For the technologically savvy, Android or other smart phone toting bingo player, there is another option. The typical work computer is hooked up to a wired network and may or may not have a built in wireless card. Rather than worrying about the internet usage policy, use your smart phone (and if necessary a small wireless USB adaptor) to completely skirt the company’s internet and therefore their policies as well. You could even do actual work between bingo games.

Any time you are doing non-work things at work, knowing keyboard shortcuts can save your bum from a peeping boss. Alt-tab on any PC changes windows so you can go from bingo to your work email or pressing the windows key and M minimizes everything so you only get in trouble for doing nothing rather than trying to win at online bingo. If you need to sneak in some bingo time at work, there are options. Besides, if you win big you may not even have to worry about the boss anymore, right?
