Productive is really hard to define because we all value what we produce differently.<p>If I&#x27;m playing minecraft and optimize a factory in an hour, that is a productive hour of gaming.  But to my father, that entire time was wasted because he cares naught for video games and would instead be out working his farm.  But I look at the small scale farm and realize that for what it produces, it would be cheaper to just buy the produce and thus don&#x27;t see it as productive.<p>Is watching football and prime time TV productive?  What if you have someone who doesn&#x27;t like either but is doing so only so they can be a better culture fit at work since that is what everyone else at work is doing?
