when you don't like your job - all you have to do is spend two hours down the gym at lunch. it means when you go to work, you are essentially going to the gym with a bit of work before and after- it means your aren't wasting your time - your days are spent getting/staying fit. also, spend your working/desk time engineering the work you do in order to skill yourself up- use the poison project as a vehicle for your own development. then make a move after a few months. you can turn around quite tedious projects like this - and you'll actually enjoy going into "work"Comment
