Re: So bored you sue! - Page 3

Hey guys,

Frederic Desnard is suing his former employers for £300,000 for being "killed professionally through boredom"! He claims that the monotony and unchanging routine of the job left him feeling depressed. There may be some validity to his claims as work place boredom can be a cause of stress which is known to be bad for your health but I'm not sure if being bored entitles you to that sort of cash.

Full story here

Luckily for me working in online communities there is never a dull moment But I've had my share of boring jobs over the years. The worst one was "microfilm photographer" which sounds cool on paper but all in involved was spending 8 hours a day moving documents onto a plate and pushing a button to take an image.

Whats the most boring job you've ever had and why was is so mind numbing?

@Cleoriff Oh no! I hope they didn't expect you to dig the tiny diamonds out of the sharps box!

Oh we did. Not sure of the value of those but the total amount he was carrying was £150,000....His car was a write off ...so no idea who went grovelling round looking for the rest of them...

Well that's not an amount you want to be reasonable for paying back!

Made me think of the bad guy the the last Pierce Brosnan Bond movie Die Another Day
