So first idk how to make turn pics to be normal ha. Anyway with that being my view today for almost 8 hours and its pretty boring throwing dirt all day in a track hoe. Got me thinking what's the most boring part of your job? This ranks right up there for me. Checking grade is probably first but sitting in a machine all day moving dirt around is just about a close second. So what ya got?
The most boring job I've done was sitting in a boat for 12 hours during the hot summer going over the SAME stretch of water day after day for months. But the money was good.

What a timely thread. Just today I was thinking about the this. When work gets boring I just think about my bow and them bucks. It is a cure all.
I love my job! lol I work with friends, and get to play on the computer the whole time (sort of). Only time I get bored is when I am down in the basement by myself, but the radio helps to cure that.
I guess the most boring part of my job is waiting around for guests to check in at the end of the day. But really, it's not a boring job.
I'm a truck driver/delivery driver and the worst/most boring time is waiting at a loading dock for people on breaks, or waiting my turn in line to back into a loading dock. The idle time drives me mental. Not as bad since I got an iPhone though! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
There will be times where I can sit at my desk without any work for 3+ hours... I browse the same websites every single day.
Being tied to a phone "waiting" for a customer call. I may get a boat load of calls or none at all. It's typically one way or the other and nowhere in-between.

My previous job I would sit at an intersection from 7-9 am and 4-6 pm counting how cars moved through the intersection using a turning movement board... I will say that, being in a college town, some intersections were better than others when the weather was nice.
The most boring job I have done is supervised a 9 acre excavation. And by supervised, I mean not really supervised, but more just made sure the contractors did what they said they did. I couldn't tell them what to do or anything. I just sat in my truck for 4 months and watched them dig dirt. At the end of the day, I called the client and said "yes, they dug dirt today." That was it.
