workplace.Work/Life ConflictThis category emphasizes situations where conditions of the workplace (hours, location, etc.)interfere with personal priorities.Brief examples of participant responses in each of these three categories are provided below.Type of WorkSome individuals were bored by too much repetition over too time in the same position: (Boring) “And it was so boring to me. Every time I was in there, I was like, ‘Oh, I do not want to be an engineer. I do not want to sit at a computer all day.’” (Marilyn, Private2) (Boring) “[S]ometimes things can get pretty repetitive. I don't think you can get to a point of you have learned the maximum amount that you can learn on the job. I think there's always

Dr. Faas was the Shapiro Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at MIT from July 2010 to July 2012. She received her Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and Human Computer Interaction at Iowa State University under Prof. Judy M. Vance in 2010. Her research devel- oped a methodology to support low clearance immersive, intuitive manual assembly while using low-cost desktop-based Virtual Reality systems with haptic force-feedback. Research interests: virtual reality (VR) applications in mechanical design, design methodology and engineering
