The company has control of my work time by definition -- they pay me for my time. How it chooses to use the time I give them is the company's prerogative, not mine. I really don't care one way or another if it's cool with me sifting through Instagram for an hour while someone talks about a bunch of nonsense.



Your time is the most valuable thing you have. My unsolicited advice is that you exert as much influence as you possibly can over how it is spent.
