odious

This term describes a deep sense of revulsion that transcends simple dislike. It is typically reserved for things that provoke a strong moral or visceral reaction, such as heinous crimes or repulsive behaviors, carrying a heavy weight of condemnation. In a professional or social context, it often describes tasks or duties that are not just boring, but actively loathed or degrading. It suggests a quality that makes the subject offensive to the very nature of the person experiencing it.
