what do you do when you are on bench?

I really wanted to know what people in MNCS's or startups do when they are not assigned to any projects or learning tasks?

Things I do :-

1. Read blogs about my favorite programming language
2. Understanding about different JOB roles
3. Create music
4. Exercise more

If I don't want to get things to do, I read blog article (like...right now...for example) or go on a personal project.

If I want to be assigned to a task, I blatantly open a youtube video on the laptop or a game on my phone. That way people will see I'm not working and maybe worry. If they don't, I go annoy them. Just sit beside them and talk to them. Either they get annoyed and give me taks, either I'm spending quality time with a coworker.

EDIT : the most funny thing to do, is to launch a job application website and look for offers.
