Title: Happy or unhappy with your job?
Post by: WaulML6 on December 16, 2012, 10:19:56 am
If you're working a regular job, are you happy with it or not.  If not, why.  If you are, why?  Please share your thoughts on this.

Yea I'm Happy. I worked on a Medical field but I'm not a doctor. I helped doctors and nurses with their everyday computer needs. If I can make them happy worry free for a day, they can perform their jobs and assist patients the right way.

I work as a party hostess at a place called Celebrity Girls, which is a small party hall for just little girls.
I...am...alright. I guess, it's not a very secure, reliable job, since I pretty much only have work while there are parties, hence I have not worked in about 2 weeks. I get along with all the girls but not really with my supervisor...I'm currently looking for a second job, but it's so difficult since I'm only 18  ::)

I work part-time as a courtesy clerk and I don't like it very much. I gotta collect the grocery carts from outside and it doesn't matter if the weather is good or bad. I wouldn't mind working outside in all kinds of weather if I was still a carpenter because I would be doing something that I love. Instead, I'm a courtesy clerk and I gotta deal with customers even if they are in a bad mood too. I try to enjoy my job but, there is nothing to enjoy anymore after doing the same thing for nearly 3yrs. I also tried to apply for a better position and it seems like I get turned down every time. Its also my responsibility to clean the restrooms and it seems like I have to wait forever for the women to get out of the restroom. I wish they would realize that they are holding me back from doing the rest of my job. The longer I wait on them, the more I fall behind with collecting the grocery carts. Anyways, my job is not all that great :(

Both...On the one hand, I work at home for a large company with good training and benefits like paid holidays. I work 4 hours a day, and I have Friday and Saturday off. In those respects I love it

On the other hand, I was supposed to retire in 2009 and get Social Security and a Sheriff pension. I did that and got my pensions, and thought me and my spouse would finally have time together, as we had put our rough patch behind us ( or so I thought). He did an unforgiveable act, and I kicked him ( and his generous income) out on the street. So basically I know have to work at least a little to make ends meet.

Heaven to me would be to be fully retired, and wake up in the morning and choose my own direction. I have worked full time with no periods of unemployment for 40 years and enough is enough! :crybaby2:

I feel guilty not liking my job, since I know I should be grateful for having a full time job with benefits. Actually, my job itself is pretty good, but management has messed it up so it is extremely inefficient. I don't like working like that, knowing that I could do a much better job if everything was set up so I could work smoothly. Also, the company doesn't seem to value their employees very much. They constantly take advantage of us, and there are a lot of little things they could do to make our jobs better, without costing them much, if anything, yet they don't do it. There are days when I feel like quitting, but then I realize that it wouldn't be a good idea in this economy. so I just try to value the good aspects of my job, and deal with the bad.

I like what I do and some of the people that I work with. I don't like working where I do because there are no ethics and morals. The management is totally useless.

I really don't like my job. It is way too stressful. The pay is decent, but I just don't think the stress level is worth the money.

I am very happy with my job.  As salaries go, it is not a lot of money but the focus is on helping people achieve their highest potential in a family atmosphere.  Both our long-term workers and our clientele are considered family and that is what makes it special.

In addition to my messing around with point to clicks and Fusioncash, I have a full-time job at home and another that consumes about fifty hours a week in a downtown office.  I was somewhat happy with my out of the house job but they followed the way of most corporations and cut way back on expenses (new hires, overtime) this month so it seems that I am working twice as hard for the same/less money!  Not too happy about that! My at home job is okay but it is hard to get motivated after working a twelve hour shift. Fusioncash/point to clicks are fun and mindless to do while producing a little fun money that I keep just for myself.

I have only been at my new job for 2 months and am really trying to give it a chance. I need the experience but I feel like I could do better. I am not making much more than my last job and that's frustrating to me  >:( I will give it more time and learn from this position but unless I get a little raise next month after my review period I don't know if I want to stay..

I can handle the work, but I dislike the boss’ way of treating the employees. I can’t say that I am happy or unhappy. As long as I receive the paycheck on a timely manner, then it is still okay. If not, then it’s time to get out and consult with an attorney.

I love my job although I wish I didn't have to work.  I am a people greeter at Walmart.  I love it when I greet them when they come in.  I have made a lot of friends there.  I am a people person so I am fitted for the job.  I worked in a factory till I retired but could not live on SS so a year later I got a job with Walmart and have been working for them for 8 1/2 year.  I think God every day that I am able to work at my age.  Hope everyone has a Happy New Year and may God bless each of you and keep you safe.

I would consider the jobs I do online are regular jobs. One, they stress me out. Two, I work hard long hours to earn money. Three, the jobs help pay the bills. My other job is being an homemaker and that is the best job. I love watching my son and teaching him things like sign language, learning to read, colors and shapes and numbers. I feel proud that he knows these things because I have the dedication of being a great mom that wants the best for my son.  :)

The jobs I do online, don't feel so rewarding......only money that helps.  :P

if the calls were more seldom i would enjoy work more. today was some what slow with the calls but the day went somewhat fast.  :thumbsup:
dont call chase if u dont absolutely have to. why? because u people drive us nuts with balances and transactions. too many calls and it seems there is not enough of us. more people should bank online.. or use the automated system. they can figure things out themselves. the fastest way u can get ur balances and transactions is to put ur debit card number into the automated system after dialing the number on the back of ur card and put in ur pin. it will ask u to press 1 for ur balance(s) and 2 for transactions. seriously.. how hard is that? i do it myself. i also bank online. the only time i call into the call centers is if i cant find my credit cards and i need to make a payment. have needed to do that only once so far  :angry7:.

I used to love my job until I figure it out I am a high priced maid and shofer.  I did in home care for 17 years.  I loved the people I cared for until their family member expect me to clean the whole house, laundry and run errands for them and not the person I was taking care of.  And when I talked to my boss about it I was told I had to do everything the family asked me to do.  I was there to take care of their loved one so they could take a break from doing it not to do their errands and the house work they didn't want to do.

I really enjoy my job.

I work in a group home and help the men who live there with all of their daily life activities.  Each one has different  needs depending on how his traumatic brain injury affected him.  None of them can live on their own because of their accidents.

I help them with walking, getting dressed, showering/bathing, getting meds and meals.  I take them to appointments and to the fitness center..... I basically help them live as normal as possible.

I also very much enjoy my online "job".  I am here on FusionCash, but also work other online business.

I have 5 jobs and for the most part I am happy with them (nice and appreciative bosses and clients, flexible with my schedule, etc..) although sometimes I wish I could just have one full time job with benefits (at least my husband gets benefits for us). I'm a bit scared to mess with my jobs because I think I will find something I dislike much more, pays less and will end up being stuck there. That is what has happened to me in the past.

I work in an emergency department/trauma center doing registration. It honestly takes a certain type of personality to be able to work under such stressful situations as well as stomach some of the things that you observe. I absolutely love my job and I don't know what I would do without all the chaos!

I have worked for myself for 20+ years owning 2 businesses.  I recently took a job in chain clothing store.  The employees were negative and hateful.  I was losing my enthusiasm being around them, so I resigned.  The negative attitudes came from the manager who talked about employees to other employees and shared too much personal life.  I feel better having resigned because of the un-professionalism.  If you work in public, you should be nice to customers and others you work with.

I have "job confusion".  The one job that I love, I can't get full-time status there.  The second job, I can get full-time status after a year however, I am finding the work extremely boring and the managers never know what they're doing plus there's one that is a real "piece of work". 
     The plan seems to be once I have a year in, I will need to cut hours at the job I love so I will be able to be available for the job I "dislike"...it's NOT what I WANT to do but it is the most sensible thing to do I guess.  :(    I also am currently working on somewhat restoring my former business, it's what is keeping me going during these crazy days.   :)
