When you set something on "auto pilot" for a minute or so, do you stand there watching while it's doing it's thing, or do you fill that time with something else?

For example, I heat up a cup of coffee and least once during the morning. While it’s heating I’ll wipe off a counter or put some dishes in the dish washer…or, did you know that you can unload 9/10ths of a dishwasher in 60 seconds, without even hurrying? Sure seems a lot longer than that without a timer! I hate housework!

Or, for example, say you’re cooking a big meal, and you have an automatic can opener. When you set the can in it and start it, do you watch the can till it’s open, or do you get started on other things here and there?
