Richard V Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 I like mine, come in between 8 and 9, whenever I feel like, set fire to some material, work in a lab on my own so no office politics, dinner time I can take 30 minutes, or 2 hours off. Set fire to more things in the afternoon, go home at 4:30, or 5, or whenever I feel like, they don't care if you're late, as long as you do your 39 hours. Considering alot of jobs just involves sitting in an office all day infront of a computer with the boss looking over your shoulder all the time, and being disiplined for being 5 minutes late, I consider myself quite lucky.

ben.m Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Yep, love mine in general. Plenty of times where I wish I were doing something else, but the positives far outweigh any negatives! Sheep farming on the our own land. So plenty of grafting, yet plenty of time to do other things too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ME Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 I work for myself and do generally enjoy my job. As the recession drags on we do seem to get more idiots to deal with though. Sign of the times I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitsinhedges Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 I used to love my job or be very proud of it at least but in the last few years the rates have dropped dramatically and it's also taking its toll on me physically. Don't know how I'm supposed to manage another 20years as a carpenter when everything hurts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footu Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Had 8 jobs in 4 years and hated them all. Went self employed and 12 years on still like it even though I work up to 50 hours a week. Would not swap jobs-osteopath, would retire tomorrow if I had the cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

955i Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Yup, I would say I love my job, can't think of anything I would rather do for work even when the going is tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickS Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 I am a teacher and I do love the important bits of my job (the teaching and supporting the kids). I hated being a head of department so ditched that to return to what I enjoy. Something I do notice is how much more exhausted I get as I get older and how ready I am for the holidays when they arrive. It bugs me though when I see so many teachers giving so much yet being the constant target for government and Daily Mail whining and moaning.

IXI KARL IXI Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 I work for Nissan and its the worst job I've had. Been there 6yrs and its to the point it's soul crushing, also took a hell of a toll on my back (one operation and still isn't right) also don't like factory work so that's the kicker. Would love to be "that" person who likes there job and does not mind heading off to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
