    I worked at a call center that would warm-call and try to sell annual subscriptions to a musical theater to people. I worked there for two weeks and only sold one subscription, so that's two full weeks of no productivity. That kind of work stresses me out the most so I'd take smoking breaks every 20m. On week 2 I would come with a bottle of coke spiked with Johny Walker Red and sip on it during the day, to either loosen my tongue up or just to not give a shit. Nobody noticed but I did get terminated for never selling anything. Our most productive employee was constantly high, we watched The Harder They Come (1972) at his place once, nice guy.
