Boooooring! How to Love Your Job?
Boooooring! How to Love Your Job?
You’ve been at work for ten minutes now, and already Your eyes are roll’ing
back in Your head. Your job doesn’t challenge You to think, and sometimes
You think that a trained monkey could do Your job just as well. Sound
familiar? Many humans are bored out of their minds while they are at work.
The truth of the matter is that most jobs are exactly like this. Repetitious
tasks must be done, and chances are good that whoever designed Your job
created it in a way that insured that the employee would never have to think
for himself. So many employers seem to be risk-adverse, and these are the
guys who design a job that can’t be easily screwed up. Bor’ing is always high
on their agenda.
So how does one live through this? The answer is simpler than you’d think–
games. We know of one waitress who can tell You exactly how many plates
she has delivered in the past three years. We spoke to a bank teller who
knew what her record for most clients served in a day (and week) were.
There are policemen who keep track of their tickets, and bakers who count
their cookies.
Take a lesson from Your childhood. Remember when You were a youngster
and You had to make Your way through Your daily chores? You made a
game out of it didn’t you? While You might not have managed to get
someone else to do Your job for you, Tom Sawyer probably had noth’ing on
Your ability to make a game out of drudgery. So why did You stop? If Your
job is mind-numbingly boring, make a game out of it! Chances are good
that those around You will wonder why you’re suddenly smil’ing all the time
and You appear to be hav’ing fun.
GOOD LUCK!
