New Bored, heh
Yeah, I'm sure the real, live tech writing jobs where I "would have been bored" are nowhere near as intellectualy stimulating as deciding how much to charge for a cutout CD.

Not exactly complaining. It's honest work and kind of enjoyable, in a mindless sort of way. Get to look at lots of cover art, which I enjoy. Hell, just getting out there and earning a buck in the company of similarly occupied people is satisfying. But it isn't exactly a brain-stretching challenge.

New Savoring it, I trust..
I remember some *times*, trying to find WTF did we lose the #*%$ beam !? (accelerator complex) ... people waiting, at first patiently. What are we forgetting? yada yada Then-

I'd recall the mindless exercise of packaging dynamite at Giant Powder one summer; even the kinda visceral thrill of seeing the Angel Buggy being carefully rolled on its wooden wheels - with 800# of glyceryl trinitrate aboard. Dipping the tubes quickly into liquid paraffine meant that - you didn't want to lose even *one* out of the basket, where it would be warmed to the full temp of the paraffine! and-

Mindless, often slow but - conducive to a certain meditation.

Hey.. don't forget the jillions of mega-annoyances associated with the word 'company' - which you are currently free of! amidst millions Who Aren't.
