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?
There’s more in person hurry up and do nothing jobs than work from home positions, and I would imagine most people complaining are not working from home, or have to maintain availability showing in a chat program, or are just busy enough to not be able to get into what they want to be doing.
