One that gets me about work is that it's so monotonous. Would appreciate any tips on getting through the everyday ...

Go to a new place for lunch once a week. Bring a different co-worker. You've got to get out and see different things, even at work.

Wear comfortable shoes, either small heel or no heel. Many women like to look attractive at work, and heels can help. But if you're walking from cubicle to cubicle, floor to floor, going out for lunch, and standing up while presenting PowerPoint presentations, your best bet is to remain comfortable.

I find that if I embrace all the monotonous stuff that corporate workplaces are known for, it helps me get through. For instance, I'll hang out at the office water cooler and tell stories about what I saw on television the night before. And I'll make a comment that this is such a cliche thing to do, talking by the water cooler at the office, just to give the situation a sense of irony. Also, I will use terms like "thinking outside the box" and "ramp up plans on that" as I make quote marks in the air. It really helps! And people think I'm a little crazy, which is not a bad thing in a work environment.

Uh, do you star on a sitcom called "The Office"?

When you have time to take a break, get out of the office and take a walk. If you're super stressed this is a great way to clear your mind.
