You are totally right about the boredom. There was an opening for an Engineering position and I was the perfect fit. My wife’s boss told me to apply because the hiring manager is his friend and I would have a very good chance of landing the job. I said no thanks. I rather be productive.
[quote=werewolf34]I think the salaries compensate for the boredom of the work. In all seriousness, these high compensation packages are a product of strong unions and stupid leaders just kicking the can down the road.[/quote]
