I know people who literally sleep on the job all day. If you're doing something, regardless of where, I'd say you're already ahead of the curve.

[ And something tells him this isn't the type of kid who's gonna sit around doing nothing, if futzing around with the Ingress had been a priority upon arriving. But still. Nobody ever seems to actually get in trouble around here. ]

In my professional opinion, you should do whatever the hell makes an indefinite space jaunt more tolerable for you.
