Well, thanks to all.
I started making "to do" lists to keep me as busy as possible during the day. Helps them to go by faster. I hate to speed up my life that way - it's already so short! Yeah I guess I just try to focus on the "good" parts. We have a lot of perks that I know many others don't have and I almost feel shameful for hating my job.

AAAAA- I know what you mean about taking the highest paying position and spending time away from your family.
I suppose I just have to concentrate on the good and when I get distracted because like you said Split - I don't use near the skills I have and I'm bored basically - I just leave it there at 5. (Or, 5:30 for me.)
At least I'm making steps toward making it better.
Thanks for all your support guys. It helps to vent a little.
