Did you hear that? I am surprised if you didn’t.
It was loud.
Or maybe it was just loud because it was in my confined space.
What what is?
It was the sound of my head hitting my desk.
No, I wasn’t under it looking for the Cheez-it I dropped.
It was my head hitting the desk out of boredom.
I say boredom, but really I have a ton of things to do. I have a ton of things to do, but this particular task of software testing and verification is tedious and boring. Staring at the screens all day and very little movement has left me rather sleepy.
I have other tasks that would be much more interesting and stimulating. However, this particular task I have put off longer than I should so I am plowing my way through it. I am only about half way done. Ugh!
I have a feeling my head will have a few extra lumps on it when I am done. How many bounces will my noggin take off the desk? Care to take any bets?
Do you have a task at work that is tedious, boring, and positively mind-numbing?
