    If you like the work that you do, wouldnt you then find things to do while on the clock that you enjoy while also being productive.

      Yes, but there’s only so much that can be done before a project needs funding or other people’s involvement to move forward. And in my workplace, there is a culture of “stay in your lane and don’t rock the boat”. So I have to choose carefully when and where I try to expand the boundaries of my role.

        This culture thing seems to be the issue. The same job description at a different company with better a culture may or may not exist, but it’s worth researching to find out.

          I keep my eye out for positions that open up near me. Nothing interesting enough for me to endure the hassle of the hiring process to pursue, at least lately
