Why my boring job is a keeper 🥰👇

I have seriously the coolest job!

I work for the local county government in the recorders office and as boring as it sounds it’s actually so so interesting!!!

We have so many old maps that are historic and show how our area has changed over the years! This Utah map is just one of so many just OUR office has!!

We also keep every record of recorded documents dating back to the 1870’s (when they started keeping record of land in our area) which is BEFORE Utah was even a state!!! You can see documents of people buying land from the government to homestead it!

My office is also super laid back and I have the best coworkers! I’ve never worked in a more positive work environment before and it truly makes a difference and makes it so much easier to wake up for work each day!

History is such a cool thing and it’s cool to be apart of it and have my name on documents that future generations are going to be able to look at! It’s also cool to be able to have access every day to see the history of our area and how it has evolved over the years!

What makes your job cool??

Working in a local government office can often be perceived as monotonous, but as shown in this experience, it can actually be a gateway into rich historical narratives. The role involves managing valuable records, including historic maps that chronicle the evolution of an area over decades. For example, the office holds documents dating to the 1870s, a time when Utah was not yet even a state. The essence of jobs like this lies in the unexpected rewards that come from engaging with history and preservation. Access to these documents brings a unique perspective on community development, migration patterns, and land usage over time, which is vital for understanding local heritage. The relaxed atmosphere and supportive coworkers further enhance the work experience, making it a fulfilling environment where support and teamwork thrive. To anyone feeling stuck in a routine job, take a closer look! You may discover that it’s embedded with layers of meaning, purpose, and community impact that could inspire you. Share your unique job story and find connections with others who appreciate the historical significance of their work!

Why my BORING job is a KEEPER 🥰

Boring jobs. Also know as non glamourous jobs. Someone has to do them, and I, for one, am not ashamed of mine. Most of the boring jobs that people stick their nose up to are the most relaxing. Though it's not my job, that is my primary source of income. However, it is the job that I love to
