Boredom at Work
①You might find yourself staring at the clock, willing it to move faster so the boring workday will finally end. If your job offers little in the way of stimulation, there are steps you can take inside and outside the workplace.②If you're bored with your job,it could be a sign that you've mastered the basic requirements and are ready for more of a challenge. You might not have been in your position long enough to request a promotion. Still,you can take steps to enhance your current role. Ask your boss if there are any projects you can help with. Volunteer to train less experienced colleagues. You'll feel more stimulated at work and also increase your chances of future advancement.③If you feel there is nothing left to learn in your present position, take steps to increase your knowledge. Your company 's website might have online courses you can take during your slow periods, with your manager' 's permission. Enroll in training classes your company offers in areas that interest you. You also can pursue educational opportunities outside of the workplace, such as college classes，industry- specific training programs or self- improvement courses. If the knowledge you acquire doesn't help you in your present position,it might eventually help you move into a more fulfilling position.④Look for ways to challenge yourself, If your job involves performing repetitive tasks,set a quota for the number of times you can accomplish a particular task during the course of a shift. This willgive you something to shoot for. If you have co-workers who perform the same tasks, make a friendly wager to see who can do the most. You'll form stronger bonds with your colleagues , and your employer is likely to notice your increased productivity.⑤According to psychotherapist and career coach Nina Ham , boredom at work might be a symptom of dissatisfaction with your personal life. Finding sources of stimulation outside of work can have a positive impact on your attitude toward your job. Seeking counseling for an emotional issue can also be of benefit. If your personal life is going well and nothing you try seems to improve your engagement level at work,it might be time to consider a job or even a career change.16. Paragraph① 17. Paragraph② 18.

But her mother's eyes never made it all the way to the table.“Just look at this mess!"she moaned.“How many times have I talked to you about cleaning up after yourself?"“But Mom,I was only.."“I should make you clean this up right now ,but I'm too tired to stay up with you to make sure you get it done right," her mother said. 26 “Honey," Cindy's father interjected gently,"take a look at table,”“I know——it's a mess," his wife said coldly._ 27 _ She stormed up the stairs and into her room , slamming the door shut behind her.For a few moments Cindy and her father stood silently, neither one knowing what to say. At last she looked up at him, her eyes moist and red.“She never saw the cake," she said. 28 From time to time we all allow ourselves to be blinded to issues of long term significance by stuff that seems awfully important right now, but isn't. Muddy shoes, lost lunch money and messy kitchens are troublesome, and they. deserve their place among life's frustrations. 29 Is a lost dollar more valuable than a youngster 's emerging dignity? And while kitchen sanitation is important, is it worth the sacrifice of tender feelings and relationships?I'm not saying that our children don't need to learn responsibility,or to occasionally suffer the painful consequences of their own bad choices. 30 But as parents, we must never forget that we’re not just teaching lessons-- we re teaching children. That means there are times when we really need to see the mess in the kitchen, and times when we only need to see the cake.A. "The whole kitchen is a disaster. I can't stand to look at it.”B. But what's a little mud--even on new carpet- compared to a child's self- esteem?C. She gestured grandly toward the kitchen table, where a slightly off- balance two- layer chocolate cake awaited their inspection.D. Those lessons are vital,and need to be carefully taught.E.“So you'll do it first thing in the morning."F. Unfortunately ,Cindy s mother isn't the only parent who suffers from Situational Timbercular Glaucoma--- the occasional inability to see the forest for the trees.Beauty or Comfort?
