The Basics: Stand Out on Mobile
In the first idea, you don't even try to hide your phone – maybe your boss is chill or you can work from home – and your phone is completely out in the open, so you can hide it without a problem (yay).
Picture in Picture for Computers
While it's undoubtedly popular on mobile phones, picture-in-picture can also be very useful on your computer, and there are a number of Google Chrome extensions that allow you to do this.
Use sick leave
Don't get too sick? Why not take a sick day (or two) so you can watch the game from the comfort of your couch with tissues nearby, no honey or tea? The best kind of sick day. Even Super Bowl Monday is known as “Super Sick Monday.”
When you shouldn't have your cell phone out, you use it like a modern elementary school kid.
Keep your phone on your lap and take a peek down every now and then — bonus points if you have AirPods (ladies, keep your hair down on this day).
Take a “toilet break”
I got food poisoning last night Really You may have to go to the bathroom a lot, or you may be feeling anxious about something you missed, which may also be making your stomach churn.
Move your office to a sports bar for a day
Just place your computer on the bar, swim in the screen and you're ready to go.
Have an office party and turn on the TV
New Year's celebrations in June. There's a lot to celebrate (the summer solstice begins on June 20th).
