I’m now a pro magic the gathering player! Never thought I’d ascend to such heights, I’m terrible at magic lol

You guys have time for other things? I do my job and can fill my day with that. I sometimes have to stand my ground to make other people understand that no, I cannot do this additional tasks everyday, I don’t have the time for that.
95% of the time it is busy. The other 5% I use to catch up with the stuff I have no time for when it is busy.
If I didn’t make time to do anything besides work and sleep like that I would literally go insane after about 2 weeks
Well that is when I am at work. My work times are clearly defined and when the time is over, I go home. So I am limited to about 8 hours in a day, with a very rare exception of 15 minutes longer.
After work and in the weekends I still have time to chill, but at work I have no downtime except for breaks. Luckily my boss also knows how busy we are and doesn’t complain if I cannot get everything finished, he just tells me what is a priority and what not.
That is really helpful for the stress levels, but it is still a pretty stressful job.
What kind of job you work? I hear people talk about having downtime to do nothing all the time on Reddit, but it seems like it’s industry dependent. Ex: in healthcare there often isn’t much in the way of downtime, but many office workers (obviously position dependent…can’t think of specifics now) seem to say they do nothing all day
I work in a warehouse of a company that sells a pretty huge variation of products. I drive fork lifts on a regular basis, but my work is about 50% computer work too. But not in the office, my computer is in the warehouse.
I used to be a computer programmer, but being in the office all day drives me nuts. I need to be a little bit more active and I also like to change my view every now and then.
We have basically no downtime, there is always something to do, we are understaffed, the new hires don’t have a clue so all the work comes to the experiences workers. We are also trying to change some processes but we barely have the time.
So for me, the question was just really weird, I cannot imagine having nothing to do. I don’t even know what I would do if I have nothing to do. Probably take the day off or something…
Catcher of grasshoppers for my chickens. Waterer of trees. Fermenteer.
I’m a pro TTRPG think-abouter… Or a pro Pathfinder prepper.
Professional flight simulator pilot. I can fly a Boeing 737, 747, 777, 787, Airbus A300, A310, A320, McDonnell Douglas MD-11, and BAe 146, as long as there are no system failures and I can access my Navigraph charts.
Time compression would be great for those long haul flights as well. NYC to Tokyo in a few hours at 4x time would be sweet.

Professional slanderer of programming languages.
I’ve spent more time than I care to admit
Hate the player not the game.
Tracing shapes & cutting them out.
It’s like 20% sewing, the other 80% being planning, geometry, resource management, tracing, and cutting.
And I often discover that I’m still bad at math! Pain. 🫠
One thing I spend some time on is building out my Lego city.
Photo time!
I always wondered if people still make quirky Lego cities like the old days
Lego makes a lot of sets designed to be a city. The problem is that you need a full room to build out a city.
I’ve built a mini city on the scale that they released the mini modular set as. It is on the scale that this guy made his sets: https://legominimodularguy.blogspot.com
I think my city is better, though.

I really hope everyone’s answer is professional sleeper, otherwise we have some very unhealthy people.
You misread the prompt, it’s during work hours, not the whole day. Unless we’d expect people to sleep during work hours instead of the rest of the day to be healthy.
I’m a professional social media browser.
I think I’d actually kill myself.
Without looking too far my prediction is to see 2 varations of replies mostly:
1.) I do something completely unrelated and enjoyable because my job is chill, or I’m good at it, and so on…
2.) I actually do my boss’s job and maybe even their bosses’ jobs, because I actually do the work that gets done, but am still paid at peon-level.
