    nudna praca!

    Jaka ty masz nudna prace?

    If you have ever gone through a toll booth, you know that your
    relationship to
    the person in the booth is not the most intimate you'll ever have.
    It is one
    of life's frequent nonencounters: You hand over some money; you
    might get
    change; you drive off.

    Late one morning in 1984, headed for lunch in San Francisco, I drove
    toward a
    booth. I heard loud music. It sounded like a party. I looked around.
    No other
    cars with their windows open. No sound trucks. I looked at the toll
    booth.
    Inside it, the man was dancing.

    "What are you doing?" I asked.

    "I'm having a party," he said.

    "What about the rest of the people?" I looked at the other toll
    booths.

    He said, "What do those look like to you?" He pointed down the row
    of toll booths.

    "They look like...toll booths. What do they look like to you?"

    He said, "Vertical coffins. At 8:30 every morning, live people get
    in. Then
    they die for eight hours. At 4:30, like Lazarus from the dead, they
    reemerge
    and go home. For eight hours, brain is on hold, dead on the job.
    Going through
    the motions."

    I was amazed. This guy had developed a philosophy, a mythology about
    his job.
    Sixteen people dead on the job, and the seventeenth, in precisely
    the same
    situation, figures out a way to live. I could not help asking the
    next
    question: "Why is it different for you? You're having a good time."

    He looked at me. "I knew you were going to ask that. I don't
    understand why
    anybody would think my job is boring. I have a corner office, glass
    on all
    sides. I can see the Golden Gate, San Francisco, and the Berkeley
    hills. Half
    the Western world vacations here...and I just stroll in every day
    and practice
    dancing."
