What is the most boring job you've ever had? How did you do at it?

　　你曾做过的最无聊的工作是什么?你是怎么对待的?

　　I don't really think I've ever had a boring job, but if I have to choose one, it would probably be the winter job I had at a post office when I was in high school.

　　我并不觉得过去有哪些工作很无聊，不过，如果我必须选择一个的话，那可能就是我高中寒假时在邮局的那份工作。

　　The job involved sorting New Year's postcards for delivery for eight hours a day every day for about a month.

　　工作内容是投递贺年卡前的分类工作，在大约一个月的时间里，每天都要工作八小时。

　　I don't know how it is done now, but back then it was all done manually.

　　我不知道现在邮局是怎样分类的，但是那时候全部都是靠手工来完成。

　　I got the knack immediately, so I had to make it more interesting and challenging for myself -- I timed myself sorting the postcards and every time I tried to finish faster and faster.

　　我很快就学会了分类的技巧，所以我必须让这个工作变得更有趣，更有挑战性才行。我计算我分卡片的时间，每次我都试着比上一次更快完成。

　　The full-time worker who supervised me was impressed and said I was the fastest and also the most accurate.

　　负责指导监督我的邮局员工对此印象深刻，并且说我是做得最快也最精确的。

　　It was a great experience for a high school student.

　　对高中生而言，那是一次非常棒的经历。
