[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Work is boring but I plod along and don't really care.  I get meaning and satisfaction from things outside of work.  I also think the percentage of people that get meaning from work is very small, I'd rather focus on decent comp and job security.[/quote]

i cant seem to make this work. I can't just suck it up, sucking it up is giving me the crisis. [/quote]

PP here and are you sucking up being bored or are you sucking up a bad work environment (too much work, low pay, bad boss, no flexibility or job security)?  Because if you're just sucking up being bored and the other portions of your job align just remember that the next job can always be worse.  Maybe it is exciting but with little flexibility or exciting but an unrealistic workload.  Or maybe it's an exciting job with a start up that could fail and you would be scrambling to replace the income.  I'm just saying this might be a time to reflect on what you have and not what you don't and consider whether you really do have a decent situation.[/quote]
