Undiagnosed ADHD. Jobs get repetitive after the "training" phase.

My job is to replace smart gas meter devices. It involves a lot of driving, and repeating the same installation process 20+ times a day. Sometimes something interesting happens, but they are getting fewer and farther between. I've been there a couple months and I am getting burnt out from the repetition. As of right now, I usually watch videos or eat on my breaks.

Things I've considered:

• Podcasts (I'd have to use my own phone, and I feel like I'd get bored of these pretty quick)
• Music (I listen to music when I'm driving, but not during the installs. I could bring a bluetooth earpiece and listen all day, but again, I feel like I'd get burnt out/bored)
• Call someone (I dont have the social capacity to talk for 8 hours. I also have to ring doors and talk to residents)
• Give in to distractions (I can allow myself to stop and explore every so often, but not too often because I have a quota)

Have y'all found anything that helps throughout the day?

I graduated 2023, applied my heart out, and nobody will give me the time of day because I have no experience. Now everyone is getting laid off.

So how's your day?

Why YSK: Youtube's enshittification creates an abysmal experience. There's a list of Chrome extensions I've collected over the years that each fix an aspect of Youtube to bring back a genuine experience. I've seen in comments people mention one or two of these at a time, so this is a pack that contains everything you could need, and more.
