I like my job and for the most part I’m very productive, but I have one task. I have to do every day that boards made a tears. I keep stopping and looking at my phone or doing other things cause I just don’t wanna do it.

Depends what it is, but sometimes music, gamify it, pretend I’ve got my own cooking channel (lol, if I’m cooking). I think the thing is best to figure out what ignites you and to reverse engineer it into boring stuff. Is there anything you specifically need help with?
I do quality assurance in an office. So I basically check the work of each department. This one department is data entry and I have to make sure it’s done correctly and it bores me!
No, I have to do it. It is tedious.
Ah, so, is it that it is repetitive? It’s to slow,m? It’s too easy? If you gamified it you could change it into a treasure hunt, looking for errors. But maybe there is someone on your team who loves this task and hates one that you love!? Are you able to delegate? Or swap?
