I keep a clipboard with scratch paper on it at work, and when I'm waiting for people to come up and be served, I jot down a few sentences. (There isn't enough time between people to do anything else anyway.)
I also write during breaks and sometimes at lunch. Then I take home what I've written at the end of the day/week.
I just have to remember to write obliquely enough so that whatever comes out of my pen is work-safe, but not so much so that I forget what I actually wanted to say once I get it on the old computer. It's an interesting balancing act. *grins*
I also keep a composition book in my purse and write in it whenever I'm waiting for my order at a restaurant, or whenever I have more than a couple of minutes wait. The cover is hard enough to make a decent writing surface by itself, which makes it better to my mind than a plain notebook.
