I always try to be a little early to a loan signing at an escrow office so that I can review documents and get a good understanding of what's going on. I'll actually re-sort the loan documents a bit before signing. I'll place the most important documents to the signer up top for a look at the things they want to see most. Terms and Costs. I place lending instructions and items that the signers don't need to sign to the back. This way the signers feel comfortable seeing the information that is most important and don't get hung up on anxieties of things that don't apply to them. Usually the signing will be a breeze thereafter! I try to pre-fill out invoices and my notary journal too.

If these things are done I get lost in instagram or other iphone apps.

I usually use that limited spare time to clean up & read email. However, this last time I was doing a "parking lot" signing in the back of my car and did some bookkeeping while waiting for the client to fix some paperwork, since I have been pretty busy lately. There never seems to be enough time!

I will also read the paper, play spider solitaire or look up real estate for sale on my iPad, all relaxing pastimes for me. I am never bored.

You are a bit early for the assignment. However, the person(s) to sign the documents are not available yet. What do you do? After checking on the phone for email, and making any needed calls; you still have "some time on your hands" - what do you do?

I play chess. I have chess on both my phone and a small portable chess computer/game. My clients often comment on the "intellectual image" that chess playing projects. I don't do it for the "image" - I just like chess. For those familiar with ratings, I am a "average" player with about an 1100 ELO rating. I just set the computer to play with a slightly higher rating and win about 1 game in 3. It's nice that the came can be put away instantly and will wait for my next "wait" time.
