Free Time Task:
A lesser workload—or even a week or two where you don't have much to do—sounds like a welcome relief to anyone who has contended with a crazy burden.
However, to quote those ’90s motivational speakers the Spice Girls: “Too much of something is bad enough, but… too much of nothing is just as tough.”
It's difficult to keep motivated when every day at work is a slow day. It may even cause you to doubt whether or not this profession is truly worth your time and effort.
So we one day thought that why not do something extra that can help our team to enhance their skills and can make their day productive too.
We started looking at the various tasks/assignments over the internet and while searching we make sure that the task has something new/trending that we can give to our team so that they can learn.
The tasks are then assigned on the ClickUp (in Free time task) and the team can further log in their time in this task.
For example, if one task was started at 9:30 am and it got over at 12:30 pm the candidate has to inform the Team Lead that he/she will be free and post a message saying “I am free” along with tagging the captain. The task is then assigned to the candidate and then he/she can work on the given task.

And since the day we have started implementing this in our team we have seen that it actually works!
We assign different tasks to both Graphic Designers and Motion Graphic Artists and make sure to set a deadline for the task to make their day more productive.
The tasks are then reviewed in the weekly meets, the leads/managers then share their feedback on the task.
