Boredoom

Boredom is interesting to ponder upon--

It is a waste of the only thing of which it is impossible to get more.
Time.
Boredom is a waste of time.

and employment is so often boredom, in this office-cubicle, computer-screen, technological world. So it is required of some to sit and become more and more involved in the emptiness of endless numbers and names.

wouldn't you want to look at thousands of lines of names and addresses? numbers and codes? 5 days a week, 8 hours a day, both ways to and from chock full of traffic like a clogged artery.
That doesn't sound ideal to you?

Really, all I want is a job that doesn't repeat the same thing every day.

And doesn't involve a half-hour conversation about Kraft Macaroni and Cheese and how Velveeta mac and cheese isn't *really* "mac and cheese" but  "Shells and cheese".
Monotony. Stupidity. Futility.

Is it really that much to ask for a creative job that makes enough to live on? At least there is a real purpose to creativity.

Database management? Not so much (when you loathe technology anyway).
