I work at a pizza place and if there’s nothing in the oven then i bring a yoyo out to have a bit of fun. Had a customer claim I was blocking there path once though… Which i was later told by a manager who claimed that I wasn’t. I don’t know. But I’m thinking i might start going out back to throw now. ---

I do all the time, as long as it’s not distracting me from my duties and am in a safe enough area to do it, I’ll do it. My coworkers enjoy seeing the tricks. ---

I also get to throw at my job. I try not to do it for too long if work is slow, but if we’re busy I can squeeze in a trick or two between tasks. ---

Used to work at Guitar Center, didn’t have much time for throwing besides on my break. Now I’m a Realtor and have the luxury of working from home most of the time, so YES. I also throw during the downtimes/when no one is coming through during my open houses. ---

I currently work in an office 2 days per week and home 3 days per week. At home I throw a lot. When I’m in the office, I’m really trying to maximize that time since I have so little of it, so I usually don’t wind up throwing. I do throw a bit on my commute, mostly while waiting on train platforms. ---

In the break room if no one is around and sometimes when I am waiting for guests to show up for an activity. I work in the recreation department of a huge resort. I tried to teach my boss and he got a few throws in but wasn’t really interested. ---

Sometimes, especially if nobody is in, or waiting on hold etc. Good time to work on a specific element or trick. ---

I work in an office setting most of the time (also work from home or on site as well, depends on the day!) Started yoyoing at work when I quit smoking cigarettes, I told my manager…look, same break but I’m yoyoing instead of smoking! I was given the support and that was almost 6 years ago now! Still throwing strong and not smoking, during on and off hours 🕶 ---
