Altough this is a unique industry, I found this to have an interesting perspective.

In my case, I’m an EMS helicopter mechanic. I hate it. COVID probably had a lot do do with my burnout in my situation, honestly. That being said, each time when I wear company shirts in the community, it seems like at least one person strikes up a conversation about how my job must be exciting. I guess from the outside it is, yet you can’t get much more boring than working on Bell products in the medical industry with mediocre pay. I’m trying to move to the flying side (fixed wing-out of EMS) not because flying jobs themselves excite me- it’s better pay, more professional respect and better benefits. So in my case is flying considered a “boring” job? Is Mx a “boring” job, because not many people want to get in to Mx?
Kind of interesting questions. Thanks for sharing that, it’s always good to do a little introspection.

Seeking a boring job in aviation isn't about opportunity or security. A boring job with little excitement is the focus of what we do. Completing a flight with nothing remarkable and nothing to write home about is the goal.
