Nano-silver is effective against bacterias and viruses. And having a filter with nano-silver coated surface is just a simple yet an effective approach. Cost-wise changing a good quality air filter every 2-3 months is much cheaper than having a UVGI installed and paying higher electricity bill every month.

Automating, orienting to the result, batch manage them to feel like a challenge.
What is the problem then ?
When automating doesn’t work, when results don’t appear, when managing bulk tasks(multitasking) ends up being mentally tiresome instead of challenging,
I get frustrated because they are way too simple tasks and I can’t deliver. To simplify it; Imagine when you can’t remember the name of a person but remember every other details of his characteristics, it gets only more frustrating
To give a little insight of what is demotivating me, it is not the tasks that are big, instead it is the tasks that are just small and not mentally challenging. Simple but frequent and time consuming. It bothers me in a sense that whenever I work on these I just feel like a car where the gearbox is on a Neutral Mode. Not going further even though the engine is running.
I like your approach on pointing complaining/exaggerating as an extra mental energy. I have lived my life believing that time is not money. Time is more expensive than money. I can’t motivate myself when the rate of time/money exchange isn’t good. Some of my friends think that I have a narcissistic tendency. But I really just value time more than money. That is what bothering me to be exact.
But that is causing a distraction and dreaming of a better environment/better work is only demotivating more in this situation, given that you are working on a task which you are lacking motivation.
