have you ever experience counting every minute you stay at your office job?

hi there gelaytuscano, yes, i already experienced that thing. that i always counting on the remaining time until its going home time. and during those times, i can really say that my life in that job is like not going fruitful anymore. that i always feel the sadness and not the happiness anymore. hence, i am becoming inefficient to every detail of my job instead of doing it efficiently. until such time i consider my life in that job going to a mess. so i ended up resigning as i don't want to settle things until i get drowned in it. i have decided to leave and divert my attention where i can be more fruitful and progressive.

Perhaps when I was sick? I Always liked to work plus I don't care that much about others. If I work I forget everything around me (incl. home).

i haven't really started out counting whatever time left it is for my work day. but usually i would be like this if i am in a meeting and i am uninterested in the topic or discussion. :D i hardly notice the time when i am in my desk because i often am not bored at my desk because if i am not interested to work first, i can go to mylot first and just type and participate for a while :D

I experienced that before, too. It was in my overseas work back in 2007. Morning was ok because I started work at 9am and lunch break comes at 12:30nn. But the tiring part is from 1:30pm to 6:00pm. I'd have to keep myself busy with some things if I'm already done with most paperwork. Luckily we didn't have much internet access restrictions and I could still respond and discuss on myLot just to lessen the burnout on some days. Just hang in there, it's better to be occupied with work even though you may not like it wholeheartedly than do nothing.
