......whenever i'm waiting for something......or most days at lunch.it's not a matter of not being interested in conversation. it's more that my job is constant conversation for 10 hours 6 days a week. i look at waiting time as an opportunity for a break. reading re-charges my batteries......web surfing will also work but it's less peaceful than reading printed pages for some reason. maybe that is just my personal culture or habit after 50 years of reading.
if/when i'm retired i would expect that i won't get the same level of daily conversational input and my use of waiting time will change.
