My sister recently got her first “real job”, working for our state’s health department. I won’t get any more into it than that – but – she claims that she “barely does ANY work” most days. She’s often baffled as to how she’s getting paid full-time to work “full-time”, which usually means just waiting around for anything at all to “work” on. There are some days where she literally does not do any work at all, yet she’s paid full-time, and a pretty great starting salary at that!
I know this is just one personal anecdote, but it made me wonder: Does anyone relate to this phenomenon? Do you (or anyone you know) work a job with very little actual work? If so, please share your experience!
