    If it's a girl:

    Mi amiga estaba jugando en el trabajo

    If it's a man:

    Mi amigo estaba juando en el trabajo

    MRS. SPIEL


    -My spelling may not be right but if you mean your friend was playing around then this sounds about right =)

    If you have Microsoft you should me able to translate just fine. If anything,
    Mi amigo juega alrededor en el trabajo

    Unfortunately I'm going to have to disagree with your translation. What your saying is my friend is playing around at work [your literally saying he is playing around, i.e. objects, furniture etc.]

    Your right I am saying jugando but you said
    juagando al redelor
    , which is literally saying paying around [like around objects and things].

    Besides you can say other words like:

    Mi amigo/amiga estaba neciando en el trabajo

    OR

    Mi amigo/amiga estaba de loco/loca en el trabajo

    I would say:
    Mi amigo paveaba / hacía pavadas / hacía tonterías en el trabajo.
