      Hi,
      I don’t find my work boring as I rarely do the same thing. I work as a hospital doctor some days, other days i’m working as a scientist in hospitals collecting data, other days i’m analysing data, making graphs and writing scientific papers.
      I have regular meetings online with people around the country to discuss our research so everyday is different
      Hope that answers your question
      Andy

    For me, some parts of my job are very monotamous (doing the same thing every day) but others are varied. The core work is the same but extra bits and pieces change between the days. In general the work that the researchers want us to complete keep us on our toes!

    I don’t find doing or teaching science boring. But much of my time is spent in meetings. Some of those can be very boring indeed.
