Would you do a boring job ?

[muddy]

Speaking yesterday to a friend .
Her son who had a good but boring job says it was killing him .
I felt so sorry I would hate a boring job and have to do it for life .
No wonder people prefer to claim benefits .
If the alternative in a soul destroying existence why do it ?

Lots of us have done boring jobs, or jobs we dislike.  Some of us do dangerous jobs. It's how we support ourselves, and the families we choose to have. 

If your friend's son had a good job, he would be well paid.  Perhaps he could have worked at something more interesting but less well paid?

Benefits should never be a choice IMO. They should be  stop gap for anyone capable of work.    Obviously there are exeptions for disability, seriously poor health etc.
