Here's my weird situation: I started a contract as reception in a medical centre a week ago, covering someone for maternity leave, who is still there for another week. My desk and email is all set up but I have minimal work to do because she hasn't taken leave yet LOL. It's so awkward and the days go slowly - what are some things I can volunteer to do? Yes I have asked my colleagues but they just say don't worry about doing anything right now. What would you do? I'm so bored...

Is there anything at all to learn? Maybe processes/systems, or have you already got the experience with the whole lot? Might be a chance to get ahead of some of things.
