It's been a while since I started my job, and here's what I learned.

1.) Clients don't know how to follow instructions.
2.) The policy can change at any moment.
3.) the more proactive solutions you take the easier your job is, but also the more boring it gets. If it's too easy it becomes repetitive.

The only lesson you need to learn is how to put in your time and get a paycheck.

Another funny thing about a lot of jobs is the company will "roll out" some BS but then it never lasts long.

We were suppose to change the way one major task is handled and it really did work and was very efficient. Of course that lasted as long as a fart in the wind. Now it is back to the hard way. And the boss is complaining about why it doesn't get completely done.

How is proactivism associated with increased boredom?

@Adaydreambeliever Legitimate, important tasks get done faster then you end up doing "busy work" and as we know, busy work doesn't really help the time pass.

@CestManan so there's no satisfaction in creating proactive and creative solutions?

CestManan · 46-50, F

@Adaydreambeliever There is but then if someone comes up with that, they could possibly make their own job obsolete.
