afewscrewsloose Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Who here actually enjoys their job? Between the lack of socialization and the dry work I find my job very much soul sucking. Link to post Share on other sites
d0nnivain Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 No my boss is a witch & the hours are exhausting. (N.B. I'm self employed) But that is why they call it work & not play 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Michelle ma Belle Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Love my job and what I do. That's not to say it doesn't get stressful and all-consuming at times or that my boss isn't demanding and can sometimes be annoying AF but I work in non-profit so I feel like what I do is valuable and truly making a difference in the lives of others. That goes a very long way for me. Link to post Share on other sites
RecentChange Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I like my job. I enjoy most of the challenges faced each day. Sometimes it can be frustrating or stressful, but that's far from all the time. I am very close to and really like my mentor / semi retired boss. My new boss is awesome and has made a lot of positive changes for me - more authority, more pay, and even reduced my commute. I like my coworkers, love my office, and enjoy working for the company. I feel seen and appreciated. I have been here a little over 15 years now and have had many opportunities to advance. Link to post Share on other sites
preraph Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I like it okay, but like Donnivain I'm mostly self-employed. That means some flexibility but it's still a lot of work. I also have a small part-time office job (really small- on call). I don't really need it, so I must like it okay only not as much lately because there's an annoying man I have to depend on who isn't dependable. Link to post Share on other sites
FMW Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I like what I do, I work for a good company with good pay and benefits. I work at the headquarters of a large company with more than 5,000 people at our location alone, so lots of opportunity to meet new people and make friends. I hope very much to stay there until I retire (13 years is the plan). But currently we're going through a very stressful period, so I definitely feel I'm earning every iota of my pay and benefits!

The Outlaw Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 It has it's quirks, but I like it for the most part. There's good money involved, but being self employed, sometimes there are weeks that I won't make anything. Link to post Share on other sites
Happy Lemming Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 My last job (before retirement) was my "dream job"; I really did like that job. Unfortunately, the owner was killed in a car accident. I helped his brother wind down & close the company, then I retired. Link to post Share on other sites
mrs rubble Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 I like my job, you never know what will happen next, some days are very stressful and other days pretty easy. I work with some really neat people, my boss is a great guy with an awesome sense of humour. Link to post Share on other sites
