I also have an office job and can tell you I have uses for it.
I don't use it to produce anything, but where I am researching something and have run out of leads it can sometimes produce more which are then verified.
I sometimes use it for that too but imo that’s a downgraded replacement from asking a colleague or a more senior person.
The capitalist class has squeezed the workers so much that taking a step back and asking your peers can be seen as wasting time, but that’s when breakthroughs happened.
If your wondering why I use it, well I think big brother is probably watching so my use shouldn’t be zero. I would much rather have collaboration time
