... I'll be honest.
I think something in my mind is fucked.

I can not work repetitive tasks.
I can't. I can't. I fucking can't.

My primary task should be to program stuff. Not configure bullshit for a living.

I just want something challenging, something new, something interesting.

BOOOORRRREEEEDOOOMMM

put on music or podcasts

was my solution

also ask for x3 the salary as a raise. cuz your brain is gonna rot and only money will make that ok

I also asked to be replaced but management, despite them promising to replace me by a specific deadline, didn't even bother to try until vastly down the line from said deadline

Neither can I.

Of course, it's hard to find situations like mine where your boss understands it's hard to keep you motivated so they allow you to ask, and they allow you to pursue it.
Of course, if I do it in something related to the company business, it's theirs, that's why they pay me, but that's how it goes I guess.

Please solve this, i'm stuck at this...don't see a pattern at all.

I hated parsing names, prices, descriptions and characteristics of competing market places' products with a wordpress plugin and importing them to another wordpress marketplace. It was so repetitive. Only thing i semi liked was scraping website (with JavaScript in the browser itself not even using Puppeteer) to migrate it to wordpress system.

@Pogromist lmao solved this directly here 😂 red dots are just overlapping dots

Is it considered "Rubber duck debugging" when there's no rubber duck and i didn't even articulate the problem, but the brain somehow found the pattern by itself

@Pogromist equivalent of taking a walk to think about a problem

change of environment jiggles different neuronal configurations and states which should theoretically increase divergent thinking and increase likelihood of having epiphanies or making novel connections

also pretty sure if you stick an animal in a room with nothing to do and the environment never changes you seriously harm their IQ
