should I quit or stick it out?

hello! I have been working in a lab for about 10 months. (First job out of college) It’s a very chill job where I do work for about 3 hours a day and then just sit for the remaining 5 hours. Honestly, I get pretty bored and tired easily. I get paid average for my experience and education (though I feel like I deserve more because even though I’m not in the lab all day, I definitely am doing the most.) should I wait until I complete a year to start looking for another job? They also give end of the year bonuses (this January they gave me $1500 even though I’d been working there for a couple of months). should I wait until after they give the bonus? Does it look bad if I leave my first job out of college too early? I honestly just feel stuck here,…

I honestly just feel stuck here, it’s a small lab and there’s really no room for growth. My supervisor has been there for 15 years and his job would be the next one I would get. The place drives me crazy.
