Welcome to the nonwork

Congratulations on allowing yourself to browse a site dedicated to less office productivity! By taking that crucial first step in acknowledging the need to kill time and to make time for yourself, you take a bigger leap in leading a life filled with much procrastination and nights out drinking with your buddies.

The Unjob follows the newspeak format created in the dystopian future of 1984. Though not necessarily a word coined in the Orwellian opus, if slacking and having fun were allowed by Big Brother it’d be the most totally boss buzzword in all of Oceania. Totally.

A better way to describe an unjob is to define what it is not: work. With newspeak being the only language in the world that continually grows smaller, an unjob (or a nonwork, perhaps?) is the perfect word to define anything that happens after 5pm and before you wake up to go over your usual morning ritual. Any work that can be considered as being insanely fun and totally boss may also be classified as an unjob, depending on its level of insanely fun-ness and its totally boss gravity.

The Unjob as a blog, therefore, becomes my own personal repository for anything not related to work. Photos, videos and music related to any nonwork can be found at The Unjob, and I highly recommend that you participate in it by commenting and checking out what the Vox neighborhood has to offer.

Salutations dear Blair, Eric Arthur!
