[quote=Anonymous]Do you also take a lunch break? Do you have defined tasks or are you an hourly worker? It's kind if bad form to do lots of this stuff if everyone can see you doing it, but if you are getting your work done and especially if you aren't taking a lunch break, you're in the realm of reasonable. I personally wouldn't do things like balance my checkbook at work, but do I call the repair guy or doctor or other things that require you to call during business hours? Sure. There are studies that show that doing what appear to be mindless or relaxing tasks actually help you focus better and engage parts of your brain that you need to do other kinds of thinking. We actually have a space in our office for jigsaw puzzles and a few websites we're encouraged to visit for short breaks to help us do our jobs. [/quote]
