The world's most boring jobs

Legal jobs might be well paid but according to new research, they are the most boring jobs on the planet. According to Emolument, 81 percent of people employed in legal jobs find their work boring. That's pretty different from the rosy picture painted by Ally McBeal, Law & Order and countless other TV shows dealing with courtroom drama. Interestingly, project management is ranked the second most boring job (78 percent) while 71 percent of people in support functions also find their work fairly monotonous. Read more on the indy100.
