I've worked with some seriously boring stuff (copy-pasting stuff from citrix into reports for hours a day and days a week, and that wasn't the worst part: the worst part was that it was obvious after a while that nobody read those reports.)
Meanwhile that mindnumbingly stupid work put me in a position to do some more exciting work (going on site, talking to customers, landing a customer liaison position etc).
I never got rid of the boring work but it became a lot more tolerable with those changes.
Now we are obviously in different positions in a lot of ways so this is possibly not directly applicable to your situation.
But there's one thing you write that has me puzzled:
> A few times, it gets worse where I work on old technology stack which is far below than my level and it is very uninteresting.
I think I might have worked with some almost crazy tech stacks but I wouldn't want to use the word "uninteresting" for anyone except the best of them ;-)
As I get older (40 now) I guess I'm also most valuable because of what I know about working with people, working with old stuff and general problems we face again and again, not because of how good I was with the most popular or (in my opinion) most promising frameworks from 2005.
