Down Time

As difficult as my job can be at time when you aren’t certain what is wrong with a room and how to fix the problem it is a fairly easy gig.  The only problem with this is that there is a lot of down time.  I hate down time for many reason.  One of the biggest is that I am a pretty honest individual and sitting around doing nothing while I get paid just rubs me the wrong way.  So in order for that guilty feeling to go away I end up creating things for myself to do, which is the second thing that I hate about down time.  I will clean, test equipment, create unneeded documentation just to sooth that beast inside of me.  On top of this I work 14 hour shifts so there is only so much cleaning, testing and documenting that I can do in a 14 hour work day.  I need to figure out a way to satisfactorily use my down time during the day.  It does, at least, give me time to get some homework done!
