My job is boring, but I am kept busy.  Legal secretary....  I liven things up in my spare time, painting and other hobbies.  Right now all my spare time is spent creating this year's Mardi Gras costume.  Nothing boring about that!

I dont want you to be bored in the position. If you get bored you will become very unhappy in a short period of time. I want to keep you in one position for one yr before you move on or I think about promoting you within our company

I dunno, I'm in the same position. Went to uni and worked very hard to get where I am, really thought it was what I wanted, but now I'm just BORED. I keep thinking of changing careers to do something that stimulates me more, but I know people who've done it and they haven't ended up feeling any more positive or ended up in a better position after all. Maybe it's true that work is just a boring necessity for most people, and all this crap we're taught about aspiration and personal development is utter rubbish - eeeeeek! I might just sod it off and work part-time, spend more of my life doing things I like and let the job carry the bills........

Learn to crochet or knit... start writing short stories... practice your typing skills with free online typing lists... read non-fiction material... read a journalistic magazine...\n\nAre you bored?  Perhaps you could speak to your employer about giving you a heavier workload if they won't allow you to do any of those other things mentioned above.

The most boring job in the world is no job. \n  Ask anybody that was, lets say, left a billion dollars when their dad died or something. That person would never have had to work, just play all day... believe me that person will be very bored. YOu can only play so much, read so much, watch so much, go a certain amount of places before you get the ideas of "been there done that".

Search til you find the job that you reallie enjoy. Keep in mind that finding a job that you enjoy may require a pay cut. Apply for many jobs, get hired, and if you like then there you go. If you don't like it, Quit

yeah, I'm at work.  It's not that my job is boring, it is just that I like to see if I can help people.  also, there are gaps in my job that allow for hours of work, and a little time where there is nothing to do.

Try to observe the daily operations in your company, find some venue that you can give an assistance. And do some researches for some areas that can help the company that you are working with like Standardizing the Processes and Procedures within the company. Don't limit yourself with what the Job Descriptions that they gave you. You don't even know what they (the bosses) really expected from you Good Luck! and God Bless!

Well, you could be bored cause you have NOTHING to do, like me!  If it has been like that for more than a week, then you may need to update your resume and start looking for another job.  \n\nIf you are bored with what you are doing, ie. your busy, but bored with the work.  Then you definately need to find a new and more exciting job.  \n\nGood luck getting over your boredness!

Write a nice letter to your boss, then go in and give it to him/her and sit down and have a chat. Explain how much you've enjoyed working with them but say that, as in life generally, sometimes you have to move on. Keep it friendly and stress what a good boss they have been and how much you have learned. Also offer to help with recruitment for your replacement. It's very hard and I've been in the same position - you feel personally responsible for letting them down - but try not to feel like that. It is only a job after all. Good luck and enjoy your new job!
