Other than going on Lemmy lol.

What I have done throughout the years (as an office worker) is the following:

  • reddit/lemmy
  • chess
  • selfhosting/homelab
  • chores/planning
  • writing

Getting tired of all these, looking for something to do when I have nothing to do but still looks like I am active on Teams/online.

Investing, learning commodities and markets, planning life financials, planning outside work schedules, meals, activities, dates, home or vehicle maintenance. Couponing. Health based care and ideas.

Check in on family/older people always is worth doing often you never know when it'll be the last time you could ever hear or see them.

Basically being productive in your life outside work while on company time, its actually the highest tier achievement in an employee role.
