On work and happiness

If you hate your job, stop doing the parts you don’t like and spend more time doing the parts you do like. The worst that can happen is that you get fired from a job you hate, and is that really a loss? The best that can happen is that you start producing much better work that helps you move up the food chain.

I wouldn’t recommend that you stop but minimize them as best you can.

Realistically, if you have bills to pay and other responsibilities, and you care about them, completely stopping isn't feasible. Not unless you have a bit ol' safety net.

I agree with you though, minimizing them is a solid solution. It's been one I've been implementing for years. With varying degrees of success of course.

I often just stop doing the non-essential lame parts of my job (and/or inform people I have other high priority work to do). Rarely does anyone ask that those things still get worked on. They are usually tasks woof habit rather than tasks of value.
