    Depends on the environment at work (do you have privacy) and your interests.

    • ebooks on your phone or a reader (or even a physical paperback!)
    • games on your phone, or a small console like the retroid pocket 5
    • learn something (new language, watch a lecture course, etc)
    • learn + practice some IT skill (programming, website design, etc)
    • learn + practice any other acceptable skill (drawing, writing, etc)
    • watch movies/TV shows
    • get home tasks done to save time at home (home admin, pay bills online, etc).
    • chat with someone you know

    Good: Resting your eyes, listening to a book, tidying the workplace.

    Better: Anything creative, phoning a friend, writing or drawing in a notepad.

    Best: Stretching, going outside, drinking water, going for a stroll.

    Depends on whether at office or WFH. In the former - scroll a book/Lemmy/Wikipedia or text because there isn’t much else you can do. In the latter you can do anything, I do my hobbies, grocery shopping, chores and basically everything else during work so I can actually chill after 5pm.
