Bored at Work - What do you do?

HelloSweetie4

I work at an apartment program for mental health clients who are pretty independent, but needs some direction on occasion. I usually have all my paperwork done for the week within a day because I'm a quick typist. SO, I'm running out of things to do while I'm working. Does anyone else out there have a job that they need to find ways to occupy time? If so, what do you do?

I usually do some reading, but I just finished a book and haven't found another one yet. Also, we have restricted access to internet so I can't play games or watch videos. This about the time of night I get bored because everyone is asleep by 8pm.

Also, read about weird stuff. One google search leads to a website that makes me think of something else I want to read about, which leads to a blog about something else... I have a vast array of completely useless knowledge now.

I'm always trying to find ways to "look busy", my personal fav is to of course check out MFP but here lately it's been reading reviews on things I want to purchase such as Jillian's Body Revolution and a HRM. Already bought both of those so now on to something else.....

Unfortunately that never happens to me. I usually have to work OT just to keep my head above water.

When I was a regular casewoker I was in the same position. My caseload got to 40 (when I was hired they said it would never be more than 28), I transferred to residential.
