"Les personnes qui ont du temps libre gaspillent inévitablement le temps de ceux qui ont du travail à faire."

Simplified Meaning:
When someone doesn't have much to do, they often end up distracting or bothering those who are busy. Imagine you're working on an important project at your job, and a friend who has the day off keeps texting you, asking if you want to chat or hang out. This friend doesn't have any work to do, so they fill their time by reaching out to you. As a result, you're interrupted and can't focus properly on your project. Someone can apply this to their life by understanding the importance of being mindful of other people's schedules. If you have free time, find ways to use it productively or enjoy it without imposing on others who might have work to do. By respecting everyone's time, we help each other stay productive and focused.
