oh lord..what about trying to be human for atleast some moments of the day instead of behaving like a production robot ?
I bet we have to face hundreds if not thousands of those trivial decisions each day and most arent reoccurring all the time so you cant automate them...
We also choose to avoid making those sorts of decisions when we're focusing on more important things, preferably putting them off for other times. For example, it's common for coders to close their door, not check their e-mail, etc. when they want to be "in the zone".
When I'm getting ready in the morning, I tend to be focused on the important things. In my case, as a stay-at-home dad, the important things tend to be plans for teaching my son and helping him with his disability. I've arranged the rest of my morning to be as automatic as possible so I don't have to think about what clothes to wear or what to have for breakfast.
Incidentally, my son and I were just walking around with buckets on our heads pretending to be robots. Counting robots, not production robots :)
My definition of being rich is being able to spend an inordinate amount of time making these trivial decisions.
I watch my daughters when they go to a local candy store, and they savor making their choices. They literally have hundreds of different items to choose from.
