MP3 player is a must.
Not just music cos that gets boring. The BBC does a great line in free Podcasts.
They've got the lot Politics, Sport, comedy, drama, history you name it.
I think we all feel like we can't be bothered sometimes, but that's just like any job. Least with this one no-one is breathing down your neck or chasing your sales figures, and the only annoying bloke I work with is me.
I deal with it by working really hard for a few days a week and rewarding myself with time off, usually Friday. So I look at my list and think 'Right get this done and I'm off'.
I used to work 50-60 sometimes 70 hours a week as a Rep. Nice car, nice job title, good wage and NO LIFE. I know what I prefer.
8 years in I still love this job
