mindless stuff

Sometimes I, like many other people, find myself in the position of having to do something merely out of an obligation. Whether or not there is any value in the task is irrelevant. The competency of the person who doles out the task is irrelevant. What easier way is there to feel like a one of those hamsters, that runs constantly inside the wheel? The wheel constantly spins, and the hamster doesn't realize that he will keep on running without getting anywhere. What an incredibly sad state of affairs.
