Essay on 'Boredom with own Profession or Job'

During my work as a teacher , a close friend who left teaching asked me: How many years do you practice this profession?

I told him: maybe more than 16 years. He nodded his head and began to wonder, and then asked me another question: Did you feel tired of doing this work for this long period ?I replied: I did not feel bored during my work, on the contrary I enjoy my work well. He asked me: How does a person work long and not get bored? A good question and many people ask this question or similar questions in the same sense. I told him that I might have other hobbies, such as writing and reading, especially literature and writing for the press. This made my life varied, which did not make me feel bored with my practical life, especially as teaching is not a routine profession. With the tasks in this profession love and passion and do not consider it a duty imposed as a routine like many of the work that the staff feel bored after years. This depends on the person's personality and how he deals with the work he does. Every work can be boring and any work that can be interesting and boring if the person deals with it in a different way and does not make him compulsive and hateful. Many people have left jobs and important positions because they felt that they did not like the work they were doing. Perhaps the great writer known as Al-Jahiz left the work of the Abbasid Caliph Al-Ma'mun because he hated being associated with the Caliph. He preferred freedom and full time to writing, reading and mixing with the general public. Despite the good and the abundant money that he will earn from his work at the Caliph, but he did not want to be in the work of a lot of competition and envy and cadres of staff in the court of the Caliph, and left his work within days of practicing the work at the Caliph Al-Ma'mun. Many of the people I have met ask me how they deal with boredom in their work and perhaps in their lives in general.

For work, I think that when a person does not like his work, he should move to a another job he loves. There is nothing worse than a person spending his life in a profession he does not like and doing something he does not like every day. This makes him short-tempered, quick-tempered, uninterested in his work and his productivity, and does not end the work of the people he has. But a question may arise immediately: How does a person change his job or profession and he barely found this job that is the source of his living and the living of his children? Yes, that is true, but that does not mean that one leaves his job that he does not like without planning it. He has to look for another job he loves, and if he finds it then he leaves the job he does not like. I know a lot people who did that.
