Down time in the office, what do you do?
As titled. Any recommendations besides mindlessly browsing WSO when you have down time between comments or are just simply having a slow day? Obviously it needs to be done in the office without appearing that I'm slacking my butt off.
Check out the podcast threads and find something to watch for some external learning. Put your earbuds in and act like you're on a conference call so they leave you alone.

Thanks for the recommendations, I'm sure I will become increasingly good at pretending I'm on calls all day.
play AMOGUS
Yea man that's unlikely haha.

Read the news, (am I the only person who prefers the website to TOP<GO>?) Read the classifieds on POSH<GO> twitter, Instagram, take a nap in the nap-room. Go get coffee, etc. If things are really boring I'll go for a walk. I've timed it: I can loop around the battery, cut back across and do an entire lap of lower Manhattan in 55 minutes. I'll also go bargain shopping a few places I know nearby or go on a long lunch and explore a random hole in the wall in Chinatown or something.
How old are you and how much do you make
Old enough that most of my coworkers have kids. Enough that I'm not classified as middle class in the NYC area according to the Post.
AM (not WM) is a very flexible business if you're mid-level on up. There are meetings and assignments. If there are no meetings or TV spots, and you've gotten writer's block for an assignment take a walk and come back later.
Nust a but.
Might be the most nerdy shit I’ve ever said but I play chess. Keeps me sharp mentally and is a good pastime while waiting for checks or in between turns. Also nothing more fulfilling then knowing you just absolutely fucked outsmarted the person across from you
May I introduce to you a tremendous time-waster called the CFA?
Been there done that haha, couldn't summon the energy to do all three levels tho.

"But wait, there's more! Why stop at just the CFA when you can continue on with CIMA, CIC, CM&AA, CSOE, CBiiiPro or some of these other wonderful certifications?! Feel like you've already ticked these boxes? Then why don't we talk about CE credits?!" - Billy Mays (RIP) - Michael Scott
