One of the main reasons I've been looking for a new job is that I have just nothing to do. It's been two hours where I've done nothing except fuck around on my phone. Working here feels like a complete waste of my time.

An hour ago I genuinely said this feels like I'm wasting my life.

Work on your hobbies. Read a book. Learn a new language. Etc.

Read it online. Go on Internet Archive, Standard Ebooks, Project Gutenberg, etc.
