Antiwork

I work at a very small retail store and 70% of time I have absolutely nothing to do, but boss is pissed off when I use my laptop to browse the web.

Title basically. I work in a small electronics store and usually we have one customer in maybe half an hour, and on rainy days, early in the morning or late in the evening nobody would come in for hours. I do clean my shop once per week and make sure the shelves are stacked and all, but most of my time I just sit there and do nothing. So I brought it my laptop to mostly just browse the web. I put it away immediately when a custom comes in. But my boss complains that it looks like I'm not doing my job (I do!) and it looks unprofessional. Thing is, there is literally no one else in the store, but me. Why is it such a big deal? Any advice on how to handle this?
