I wonder how consistently exciting some people's jobs must be? I've got a job that would be considered fairly exciting but it can and does involve some seriously dull downtime. Do other people not have boring periods when they're at work?
My last three shifts with Oxfam were Thursday overnight at Gate D (dull, quiet), early on vehicle gate 2 (unbearably hot, no vehicles stopped) and Monday early on pedestrian crossing on Cockmill Lane (tired people traipsing back to carparks).
I saw three headliners of my choice, was onsite on Monday, had access to crew bars and if I could guarantee those shifts each time I'd never try for a punters ticket again.
