A study has been conducted and here is the most boring job according to science. As well as the activities that define a person as boring to death!
It’s probably happened to you to chat with a stranger, or someone you’ve just met, and think “shit, but he/she is really annoying ! “. His hobbies, his job, his life… Nothing is really interesting or even boring to death. And there comes the moment when you say “am I as boring as that? “. For the knowledge, a study looked into the subject.
This is the most boring job according to science
Published in the scientific journal Personnality and Social Psychology Bulletinthe study conducted by Professor Wijnand AP from Tilburg is interested in the “constitution” of a boring person. That person you never wanted to talk to in the evening. The one who, whatever she tells you, will bore you to death. Well can you imagine that this boredom could be linked to his job.
Indeed, the study reveals that some trades are often considered boring. And among these, we find banking, cleaning, insurance, taxation and accounting. But beware, the job of the most boring people, according to this study, would be: data analyst.
Conversely, among the most valued professions, we find professions related to the artistic world, scientists and journalists. We promise, we didn’t pay anyone to say that!
The complete essence of a boring person
Although the job is a big part of someone’s personality. The study is particularly interested in the overall psychological analysis of an annoying person. Thereby ” The people who have no hobbieswho don’t have a sense of humor and that have no opinions are among the highest stereotypes of boring people” explains the study.
But beware, even if you have passions, nothing guarantees you will be an interesting person. ” Sleep, religious activities, watching TV, animal watching or even the mathematics » are viewed negatively by most people.
However, Wijnand AP van Tilburg and his team point out that it is important not to limit oneself to someone’s professional function and their activities in order to label someone as boring. Personally, we find it rather cool to observe animals!
