It sounds like the poster has a bit of a rubbishy job/one not suited to them.

Yes, all jobs have some boring bits, but if it's always boring then you should change!

There are really enjoyable programming jobs out there. It depends on:

- the tech-culture and environment at your work - your manager(s) and colleagues (kind of related to the previous point) - your problem space

Identify why your current work sucks and then either move or change it!
