One of the downsides of the mobile worklife is the fact that we always have time when we are waiting for a flight or meeting to start, and taking trips by air or rail. While some of these occassions may be a great time to catch up on work or put the finishing touch on a presentation; there are other times when the last thing you want to think about is work.
