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?
Imagine you’re only working ten minutes out of every hour, but it’s in the form of one minute out of every six. You can’t read, you can’t study, you can’t watch youtube and having to switch gears every few minutes leaves you exhausted at the end of the day.
Sounds like a law office. That’s the only place I’ve ever heard of six minute chunks.
My work indicates that anything we do should be logged to the tenth of an hour accuracy. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t mostly round to the quarter hour at best.
