    Who is happy with their job?

    I used to be very happy now I am miserable??? What’s up with that? I turned 30 and suddenly I have no idea what I want to do with my life?

    I don't like getting up and going to work at all, but being that I need to work I don't mind my job.

    i feel you on this one. i'm in my early thirties and it seems i'm less and less enthused to go to my job. i am constantly kicking around the idea of changing careers all together. i have a bachelors degree, but just don't know what would be right for me. plus i don't really want to move.

    the thing is i really dont care about being rich. it would be nice but i want to wake up every day and like what i do for a living. i am just as confused as you bro. i have been working at this job for the past few years and im just tired of it. i just sit at a desk all day long. but with the economy the way that it is i suggest that ppl hold on to what they have for now. but i have to make a decision here fast.

    its prolly good that it is happening though. this way it kinda forces me to persue something that i really want to do rather than sitting back and pushing it off.

    Sorry about your job, the economy on steady crash and the only black box they are going to find at the crash site is a empty heritage safe. I got some issues bout my job. I sell guns all day and ppl bother the fool out of me because they read a book and believe they can assemble a 1911 with a blind fold on and do trigger jobs on a browning B.A.R..

    Do what you like doing, and the money will follow.

    I recently changed majors due to the fact I hated what I was doing.

    Way too many people are unhappy with their jobs, and life is too short to be miserable everyday of the week

    Nobody really likes their job, even when they say they like their job they’er lying. That’s why it is a job because it is a task or service nobody will do for free so they have to pay for it. So the moral to the story is all jobs suck however there are varying degrees of suckiness. You could be an adult nursing assistant and cleaning crap out of old people’s a$$ for $8.95 an hour….

    If you're heart isn't in it, get out ASAP!
    After a semester of studying civil engineering I knew it wasn't for me, I didn't have a passion for it, and I changed my degree!

    I liked my old job immensely, we were all mates, i was in charge.. but never really used my power.
    We had many many good times and had a few too many drinks on the job.. even got the new kid drunk on his third or 4th day.

    but im in the process of starting up my company, just arranging certain aspects of it right now.

    mine isn't too shabby, I work from home(or where ever I am at the time) Saturday and Sunday on call and get paid for 40hrs + benefits at a good pay rate so since I'm off MOnday-Friday I get to spend as much time as i want at the gym.

    I used to think it was the job, now I just think it is me.

    You probably would even hate your dream job.

    I like my work, turning wrenches on Harleys, making them run faster than they are intended to is great fun. Especially when my customers tell me about how they smoked a crotchrocket . Like I did tonight after leaving the "bike-night " hang-out.

    I LOVE my job.

    I do personal training, the best thing is you can be as busy as you want to be.

    I went to work yesterday for 2 hours and made $144.00..... not to shabby.

    lol not bad. i know some trainers i heard it isnt so easy to get a large number of clients.

    but then again if you really "look" like a trainer i am sure you wouldnt do so bad.

    i have seen some trainers you look at them just look like any old average person putting people through these retarded workout programs lol.
