I work for a Real Estate / Construction Company. I write all the paychecks, "sell" all the apartments, pay all the bills, etc. I have been here for four years. It's boring as all hell, but it pays well.

I am a security Guard! I sit in a guard shack in the midle of the night and play on the computer. I make decent money to do jack crap. Youd think it wouldnt get that bad, but after a 12 hour shift you run out of things to look at on the internet. I only work 4 days a week, but I work two 12 hour shifts so I still get a full 40 and there is always overtime available. My job rocks all in all, I just get bored WAY too easy. Im considering going BACK into the military (I was in the navy). yup.

I see how that relates to your current career...not 
I guess the same could be said for me, but 11B/11M (Infantry) doesn't have much of a carry-over into civilian life unless you want to be a mercenary or a serial killer.

I get bored sometimes . . . I work at a bank so there's usually customers that need money or have some sort of problem that of course, isn't their fault. When I'm bored I either email or play online. Makes the hours go by a little quicker!
