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

Many things I could do when I have no client at work. I blog, read, eat, take a nap, chat, receive or give a massage to my workmate and can go to a cafe. It is not only me but also my workmates.
Weird, isn't It? At work and can take a nap or go shopping. . You never heard that somewhere. But yes. These few weeks, we have not many clients. So while waiting for our clients, we do what we want to do. We are allowed to do that.
Our massage salon is in the city. Walking distant to a shopping mall and cafes. Of course we can only go to the city when we have no clients for 2 or 3 hours. Besides that, there is a masseuse left and our boss in the shop. I seldom go out when I have no client. I prefer reading or blogging as I mostly bring my tablet with me just in case.
Today we had time to have a back massage for ourselves. I back massaged my workmate for 40 minutes and she did that to my back after I have massage her and before she went home. We have to treat ourselves to a massage and mind you, we have also a tense back from working.
Last Saturday, my workmate went with me to an ice cafe as it was quiet at work. We had eaten apple strudel with ice cream as you can see in the photo. Then we went back to work and brought some food for our boss and our workmates. It was a lovely day. We were earning a little, but it was still a good day.

When there's no client for me, I do up my paper work. When bored, I play games, or read, or eat, and mostly, stare idly at the glass, zone out from reality.

Zone out from reality is sometimes good for our soul. Especially if we think of a stunning place to travel whenever we can win a huge lottery @Whiteflash

Thelma, there are good and bad sides to it, but, on the whole I finally made it to being my own boss. When I sell I have to answer to people that do not care at all about me or if I make sales so I am worried when I go back that it will not be good for me. Also having to figure out where to go to find more things to do is also hard.

I go out and eat KFC. That is how I relax when I got time.

That's a nice job where you can do the things you wanted to do when there are no clients. It's good each one of you can have massage to keep you going.

Yes, it is indeed @acelawrites. Never had a job like this before where we can do whatever we want to when we don't have clients. The disadvantage is, we don't earn if we have no clients.

@thelme55 I'm retired, so now, time has slowed down a lot.

There is never a time at work where there is nothing for me to do.
