Pretty much. Some decades ago, I read a story from a guy who didn't have a lot to do at work because things were poorly organized, and he created a script to just move windows around and enter numbers and gibberish on the screen, and he would leave that running and just sit at his desk daydreaming. Eventually he got promoted, because every time his boss stopped by, it looked like he was actively doing stuff (which wasn't true of most people there).
