What do people do during WFH breaks from work?
I just spent 5 minutes staring at someone in the building across the street, which doesn't feel like a sane work break.

Watched the protest on TV.
Wfh with this sh– hole company, I really did not put any effort to doing anything. I gave work up a while back when they gave two sh–s about the workers. Thank god I am finally free from that dump of a company! Believe me you don’t know how good it is to be out of the shackles of Honeywell.
Maybe while you're working from home you should contemplate getting a real job where it actually matters if you go to it.
I spend part of my day in meetings pretending to give a sh*t about any of this and most of my time sending out resumes!
Wow, why do some of you have to be crass? If you were/are employed at Honeywell, then you yourself is a contributor to its' demise. Hopefully you all were just trying to be funny, more like egregious stupidity and really bad mannerisms to me. If you are all that is left, then out with the trash you go!28

Why wait for break time for that? It is work related?
Drink beer all day while working! It helped numb the feeling of working with complete id–ts.

What a FUN topic!
When I WAS employed, and WFH, I would either fix myself a hearty breakfast on first break, or get dinner ready in the crock pot. Second break I spent just surfing the internet for "whatever". I really really really loved working from home! Always set my timer for 15 minutes break, and 30 minute lunch. I sure do miss it.......sigh........"If I could turn back time, if I could find a way.........
Pushups, Wheel, Squats with small weight, Treadmill exercise bike.
Usually play guitar (or the kalimba I got recently). Exercises a different part of the brain.
Play the piano. I stare out the window at the birds a lot too. Thing is I notice the birds fly right up to the window and cling onto the screen looking in sometimes, maybe person who used to live here fed them. Or maybe they like the piano.
I sit on the porch and drink beer since being RIF'd.
Play with my kids who gives me meaning to why I stay at such a c-ap job

I pet my dog. No greater stress reliever than that.
Who has time for breaks?
Think about everything I have to do when I sit back down.
At least you're focusing on something more than 2 m. away. You're taking a good eye break. Carrying a load of laundry down the stairs works too.
