I don't know about you but sometimes I like it when decisions are made for me, or when there's only one choice: a Hobson's choice. It prevents over-analysis and regret. It means change versus never-ending pondering. I've worked in an office for longer than I can remember, with the last six years spent working for a large multinational company in a Marketing department. In my current (and soon-to-be previous) role I've mostly done (very close) to nothing. I've argued in previous posts that anyone with an office job is most likely producing nothing of value and while that's certainly been true for me, in parallel, I have been doing nothing. My only weekly tasks have been a 121 with my boss and a group team call where I (and everyone else) pretend we're "swamped" with work.
