Would you grind or do your work?
 
I know that pretty much everyone hates grind, but it needs to be done. I was wondering who here hates grind more or their job more?

Me personally I despise grind and wish I had all my level 50 chars from my original eq account. My RL job is a photographer and can get boring at times with editing thousands of pics at a time, but grind feels even more brainless.

EQ Grind > Work for me any day. ;)

Being unemployed atm and grinding daily or just sitting playing with my kids. I do miss having a job, it gave me somthing to do for at least 8 hours a day. Getting to hang with my kids and EQ grind when I got home was like my reward for a days work.

So Id say atm I hate the grind more.

^^ My Thoughts EXACTLY ^^

The only plus of being unemployed is that I want to get back into school full time so I've been able to be in class more than a couple nights a week. But coping with not having a job is a bitch, all the special stuff you looked forward to loses a bit of it's shine.

Hmm, in answering your question I realize that I really don't make any sense. I hate the grind of the typical office job, the sight of cubicles makes me want to vomit and it just seems like cruel and unusual punishment. I'm not really a big fan of routine in general.

However — and this is where the "not making any sense" comes in — I actually like the grinding and timesink aspects of EQ. I can't explain it. It is what it is.

I love my job I would rather be doing it than grinding. But then the more I do

I am in the same boat you are. When I grind for cash in game I could be grinding for cash in RL.

Uhh, I must admit.. I don't mind it either.

Twisted... I know.

Omg, please don't call work "grinding for cash."

That's just blending my EQ world and my real world way too much for comfort.

Besides, these days, it's more like "grinding for health insurance". ;)
