If they're not giving you enough to do, you could always write at work. I'll fess up to doing that on the odd Thursday afternoon. In fact, I wrote the conversation with Zephyr in the thing I just posted thusly.
Usually, I write after supper/beading. It's important to do at least a little at the same time every day, or thereabouts, because then your brain will be all- oh, it's writing time! Doing something more physical than mental before helps with the whole brain keying in thing too.
Anyway, you should def. stick it out.
Nobody asked me much the first five months or so I was at my job. Until I started sassing them gently in the aforementioned quiet afternoons. (Easy one though: if you have a remarkably and obviously jerky customer? That's a great topic.)
Now, I understand not everyone has sass in them, but you could at least try telling stories or remarking on neutral things.
