The Story

ExecutiveBored.com was founded by two friends from the Midwest who met at graduate school in 2006, pursued totally different career paths and came to the same conclusion. Work doesn’t suck nearly as much when you have people to laugh with.

The Bored is open to anyone wanting to create an anonymous profile and start posting about the hilarity of their own corporate environment. We like to think of it as a support group for people stuck at their desk.

Submit viral videos, hilarious internal e-mails or gripes about your boss. Post about the music getting you through the day or the nerd that sits next to you and doesn’t have a clue.

Anything office-related is fair game, all we ask is that you refrain from using last names, give everybody a good laugh and make sitting in a cubicle a little more bearable.

We subscribe to the “mullet approach” to editing. We’ll keep the front page looking good by promoting the submissions that are truly hysterical. But we won’t neglect the back end where other gems are posted. And you shouldn’t either.

Each submission you make earns you "rep points." The more rep points you amass the faster your attain new titles on The Bored.

If there is one place to combine business with pleasure, this is it. Clock in!

The Chairmen

Executive Bored is helmed by its two Chairmen of the Bored, Damian Montecarlo and Donnie Masterman (sadly, aliases are used to help them keep their day jobs). Everything posted to Exec by Bored members comes across their desks. They promote the best of it to the front page throughout the day.

The Rules

While we encourage everyone to find the quickest, most suitable way to quit your day job, our intention with this site is not to get anyone fired. Let’s face it, nobody wants to be stuck at work, but until you are roughly 65 that's just the way it is.

So, while we are having fun posting content about our average (or below average) existences, here are a couple of guidelines to make sure that at the end of the day everybody still has a paycheck.

1) No last names – People don’t deserve to be publicly shamed when they aren’t getting the job done or looking like an idiot (or both). So please don’t openly identify people. Chances are these folks have kids (some you might not know about) that need to be fed. So, if anything, do it for the kids

2) No swearing in the headlines – Everybody cusses for emphasis. If we couldn’t drop the f-bomb how would we accurately describe our job? It’d be impossible. But, please use foul language very sparingly. We are, lest we forget, at work. If that doesn’t deter you, just do it for the kids.

3) Keep it work safe – Executive Bored is a site you can access at work. Giant pictures of private parts – while a great service for some outside the office – don’t belong at work and, therefore, don’t belong here. Again, the kids?

4) No drama – We’re all here because we want to laugh and make the work day go a little faster. Please use common courtesy. There’s no need to get into a verbal war over the Internet. That’s what kids do. Lead by example.

5) Have a great time – We hope you enjoy yourself on this site. We love reading your one-liners, hearing about all your office craziness (or lack of it) and knowing we’re not alone in our boredom. So, just have fun. Like you did….sorry, we’ll stop.
