What do you do at work, when you have nothing to do?

3 pointsvectorboost5y ago3 comments

My work can be quite busy (system admin / devops) but sometimes I have nothing to do for like 3-4 hours. I tried to learn some new things in this time (Go, Lua or just some more about Linux) but many times it does not even feel good. I feel much better when I learn something for some purpose.

Also I cannot leave office in this time to go to gym or go for a walk because of COVID and also because it's not time efficient. Plus I can still get call anytime that there are urgent things to fix on a server XYZ.

So what do you do, when you have such free time, but you don't exactly want to spend it watching stupid stuff on YouTube?

Don’t tell my boss but I ssh into my home machine and work on personal projects.

I call friends. I catch 1 in 5 in the same situation and we will have a nice chat.
