Does Grunt Work Make You Angry? - GoFuckYourself.com

it does me - if i have a day of grunt work it always starts off very pleasant cuz it's mindless repetitive work - but after a few hours i can start to feel the stress build up and i get angry. i feel for factory workers, i did one summer of factory work and i have never forgotten it.

Yes it makes me angry. I should pay someone to do it for me, ive done it before but the quality isnt the same as when you do it yourself. Thats why i do the grunt work.

Grunt work can be relaxing to the mind, so I don't entirely mind it..

Grunts who don't do their work on the other hand really piss me off.

that's how it starts for me - it's peaceful and relaxing but after half a day i can feel the worm turn and it becomes torture.

and like the guy above I would love to farm out grunt work but the problem is that even grunt work needs to be done the right way and most grunt workers because of the pay just don't give a shit enough to do a good job.

Even if you pay at a premium, sometimes the work is still sub-par. It's very frustrating because there can be a -lot- of grunt work associated in the daily mundane tasks that all of us do. There just needs to be more hours in the day I think...

Right now I have a lot of grunt work.

I have to write about 50 different countries and about 6-7 destinations in each country. Then I have to add about 15 hotels with content on each destination.

Problem is to get started, once you do it keeps moving on.
