Sometimes I sit here and I think, "My God, wouldn't it be SuperAwesome to have a job that doesn't bore the shit out of me on a daily basis?" Then I really start to think about it. What would that job be? Eventually every job becomes boring, don't they? Are there people out there that actually wake up in the morning and say, "Yeah!! Time to get ready for work!! Woot!!"? Sure at first a new job is exciting. The first year is spent learning new things, getting to know coworkers... it is exhilarating. Then you blink and you've been at the same place for three and a half years still doing the same shit day in and day out. It is becoming exhausting just thinking about coming to work. Take this morning for example. I went to bed, literally fell asleep, at 10 o'clock last night. My alarms (I set multiple because I can sleep through them with no problem) started going off around 5:50am. I stayed in bed until 6:20am. I am now sitting here (at work...naughty naughty) feeling sleepy, wishing that I had a second cup of coffee this morning...I shouldn't be tired...
Anyway, back to the topic at hand. Say your dream job was to be a professional bull rider. You follow that dream and you start riding those bulls at all of the PBR events... eventually you will get sick of this. Though, now that I think about it, maybe PBR isn't the best example of a boring job. I mean, you could die on a regular basis. So this can't be boring... "Oh I got bored on the back of Flies With Bee Stingers so I decided that I would try a little free style riding. Did you see that Superman I pulled off?" But you know what I mean. Actors, actresses, musicians, designers, doctors, lawyers, pilots... they all get bored right? Or is it just me, just us, the little guys? The ones without the money?
