Same, I’ve had a 6 month break from work and I don’t miss a single damn thing about it, except the pay! My lifelong chronic boredom actually went away for the first time ever. It’s really made me re-evaluate how much effort I intend to put into work when it brings me almost nothing in return.

6 months is too short to experience boredom. We have years of things we have been putting off to do. I think it takes 1-2 years before it starts to feel like too much time.

Still, I have 10+ years of evidence that employed work is boring, stressful and unfulfilling for me - so if I did feel bored after 2 years (and money wasn’t an issue) I really don’t think I would consider returning to employment to alleviate it. Being a corporate project manager is surely the very last thing most people would reach for to provide entertainment or fulfilment :)
