No thank you. Not too interested in meaningless work with a "feeling" of productivity. Sometimes I've used busywork as a ramp into actual work, to brainwash myself into the zone and then switching to what I actually need to work on. But if I'm in an office I'd rather just cut through the chaff and get to activities with a meaningful impact, or nothing at all and be doing something entirely else somewhere else like being with family, friends, doing recreational activities. If we admit work isn't moving the needle, I shouldn't be there in the first place. Every hour spent better outside the office would allow needle-moving office time to be even higher quality.
