In the upcoming days, there will be an hour or two when I won’t be able to do anything at work because of technical events happening. This could last a month. I’d like to manage my time effectively but it could also be a chance to do non-related work. What do you do or will do to stay productive during those idle times at work?

I work from home so I mostly use downtime for chores. It's so good to get them done through the day and be able to properly put my feet up after work.

If I'm in the office, I write or draw. I don't like looking like I'm dodging work so I figure if I'm scribbling away in a notebook that doesn't look too suspicious, ha.

I don't remember how I used to live before working from home. I do all be errands with no lines, clean my house, do the dishes, do the laundry etc. I do them all in the little breaks between tasks. It's a life changer
