Yes, they actually mentioned that at the time. I don't know if
I would have been able to do a simple job all day for years or
not. Maybe I could and I'd have more challenging things I'd get
into after work. At the time a reliable paycheque and good
benefits sounded great to me. I figure you don't have to like
your job, and probably the number of people who do are in the
minority of workers. Most I think just do their jobs and can't
wait to get out of there at the end of the day.
That said, virually all jobs I've ever had that lasted for any
length of time, I usually ended up being moved or promoted into
a different job before too long, and usually the new position
was more challenging.
