What are some things you do to pass time at work during slow periods?
 
Browser online stuff with my phone, pull out my Nintendo Switch, whatever the amount of free time I was looking at.
 
I write my daily activity report, clean my work area or read depending on how slow the day is.
 
I kind of wish I knew what this feels like. Slow periods for me are times in between tasks and meetings and usually that's filled with preparing for one or the other.
 
Mostly just chat with co workers, honestly.
 
There are no slow periods at my work. When I'm not helping a customer with something, I'm normally doing something like stocking shelves or whatever task the managers have set for me.
 
I usually see if one of my other coworkers needs help. I get lots of downtime at work since I'm a clerk who just worries about the wire that needs to be cut in order to make shelves for all the coolers my company makes, whereas the other clerk has baskets full of shelves constantly coming over to him. He gets overwhelmed easily too since he's got bad anxiety.
 
I always dwell in forums like this or just watch some videos on YouTube just to kill time.
 
I'm a music person so I would listen to. music. Again, I go on YouTube to watch very interesting movies or videos
 
Browsing the internet, chat online with friends, or play my guitar.
