In the upcoming days, there will be an hour or two when I won’t be able to do anything at work because of technical events happening. This could last a month. I’d like to manage my time effectively but it could also be a chance to do non-related work. What do you do or will do to stay productive during those idle times at work?
I wish I had some downtime every once in awhile, lol. Luckily I do like my job though.
I take care of my biological needs. Then I sit in the queue for a job and play games. I always take my 3DS with me, and Pokemon Picross is a surprisingly fun game!
If you’re able to enjoy some downtime from work you can still be personally productive. Maybe Duolingo, or watch videos on how to knit. practice your drawing, or waste it like I’m doing right now and Kbin/Lemmy/Farking
I don’t try to be productive necessarily. I carry my Kindle with me, and my work laptop is a gaming laptop so I’ve been playing a bit of Diablo IV in my downtime. I have my own office and it’s a very small business so I pretty much do what I want when we’re slow. This morning I read 49 pages of Thrawn #2 between project quotes.
Online jigsaw puzzles while listening to podcasts or audiobooks.
