v.— «One common problem is the person who has been in the same job twenty-two years and clearly finds no more stimulus left in it. While a first-class artist never gets tired of his or her work, the rest of us usually get bored if we do the same thing for too many years. The solution is “repotting”—to put the person in a different environment.» —by Peter F. Drucker Managing the Non-Profit Organization Dec., 1990. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
