Hi Ruminant,
Thanks for your response.

If you are referring to spending time productively at office hours on personal interests, not of a great chance. I need to hide myself from colleagues if I really want to do something urgent.

Apart from office hours, during commute, Yes, i do read books. Thats how I progressed through few titles which I mentioned.

Internet access is available but restricted.

Outside my work, I go for long walks and learning photography….

Thanks
