Somebody has to do the boring work for the whole to be functional, and pointless work may be only pointless to some (ok, not always).
Let's just say you're not interested in the thing you work on overall. Because you aren't or because you're disincentivized to think of the whole picture by the system you're in.
That’s amazing. I can’t bring myself to. If the work is boring or pointless it just wont happen, or at a glacial pace.
