Today I hit a level of boredom I haven’t had since statistics class. It’s the kind of all-out tired boredom that gives you a splitting headache in the front of your brain, and the only thing you want to do is just GO, go somewhere else, do something else, anything, something. But then it’s only 1:30 and you have to find something to do for another three and a half hours. When I came to college I thought I left it behind in high school. When I finished the menial low-level classes I thought I left it behind then. It’s good to know that it follows you to work and, apparently, on to every part of your life.
Plus side: tonight Rick James is coming to speak to us. Yes, that Rick James.

Intense boredom sucks, luckily for me at my internship they are teaching me how to do everyone’s job in the office so they can take vacation and leave me to do their jobs. Wait a minute……

yeah, i seriously know how you feel. at first my job was pretty fun, plenty of coding and stuff like that, but now it’s freaking data entry. blaaaah. i’m already bored and i’ve only been here 20 minutes.
to combat boredom i suggest this.
this helps too, but given your current employer, i wouldn’t recommend it.

Mmmmhmmmm . . . yeah, I think it has a lot to do with cubicles and the oppressive space they provide. I’ve only had one cubicle job at MCI, and it was so terrible that people were actually taking a break every 15 minutes for cigarettes (attempted suicide) . . . absorbing all that government manufactured goodness and uranium isotopes and so on . . .
On the plus side . . . I love you . . . yes I do . . . this is true . . . so don’t be blue

Rick James!?!?! THAT Rick James?! Pray do tell young sir. Pray do tell. Did he collapse in exaustion after his tales of wonder? Did this result in a lesser man covering him in a cloak of fine silk and rushing him away to a land of pure funk? You must have felt a joy few can comprehend.
