I knew a guy who was a chemical, nuclear, and biological weapons guy in the army. He took bomb diffusal training, studied old soviet missiles, the lot. What did he do on a day to day basis? Mostly blew up grenades that didn't blow up on their own. Apparently it was super boring.

That's the sort of job you want to be super boring.

Likely because it has the chance to be super exciting _once_.

This brought to mind this Schlock Mercenary strip[1].
