Perhaps a business call is not monotonous in the same sense as speaking with your aunt is, but the monotony is to be found in repetition. Everything is described as something different, and yet, all is paradoxically seemingly the same. A new deal or a new transaction may arise, and with it all sorts of challenges and technical blockings, but it is the same routine. The same endless grind that begins where it ends, and ends so as to begin once more. With only time lost in an office desk achieved in the ultimate end.
