I read posts about people quitting jobs because they’re boring or there is not much to do and I don’t get it: what’s wrong with being paid for doing nothing or not much at all?
Examples I can think of: being paid to be present but only working 30 minutes to 2 hours every 8 hours, or a job where you have to work 5 minutes every 30 minutes.
What’s wrong with reading a book, writing poetry or a novel, exercising, playing with the smartphone… and going home to enjoy your hobbies fully rested?
Am I missing something?
I’m fine with an afternoon with nothing to do, but I’d really rather be at home. The day progresses slower without something to do. Four hours can feel like six if all I’m doing is checking my email every half hour. It feels like two hours when I’m in full flow mode.
