YES! I hate my job!! I'll admit it. I work in billing at a hospital, and it's so freakin boring. I have a lot of downtime; that's why I'm on this site. Lol. I work very undesirable hours (until 8:30pm) so it's usually close to 10 when I eat dinner. I also work in an office full of women so there's a ton of gossiping and drama. I just wish these people would grow the h-ll up. I'd love to retire, but I'm only 31 years old, so it's probably about 30 years away, even though I'm saving up money like crazy. My dad retired at 49, but he was a government worker with a pension. I am not, but I have a 401K and I'm holding out hope that I will be a millionaire one day. In the meantime, I'm bored outta my mind. 
First off, men are as full of or more so of drama than women.
If you hate your job so bad then get another one. I am surprised you are able to sit on this site all shift. Most companies would fire you if they knew you played on the internet when you are suppose to be working.
It is funny you say you are saving money up like crazy but just a few days ago you started a thread saying you couldn't pay your bills and needed to know how to supplement your income. If you are 'saving money up like crazy" and don't have the money to pay your bills then there is your solution.
Use your money to pay your bills. Save any extra. Don't hoard money that you need to pay bills you owe now.
Disagree that men are more dramatic than women, but that's the least of our concerns here.
I am working. There's just down time to my job, so I take surveys to keep myself busy.
I am saving like crazy. I never said I can't pay my bills. I'm just looking for other ways to supplement my income so I can pay my bills with money other than what I make at work. I am investing a sizeable chunk of change in my retirement account, but I'm expecting/hoping that pays off one day.
Finally, I'm divorced with no kids. I would love to go back to school, but it's so much money, not to mention I just don't have the time working a full-time job. There's no room for advancement with my current job, so I'm stuck here for at least the time being. Hate is a strong word, but I really do hate it here. Lol
You could go to school online. But it depends on where you live and what kind of jobs there are in your area. In my area even if you go to college you won't be able to get a job here. You will have to move. And things are getting worse. My town is in trouble. I guess it is good that with your down time you are allowed to play on the internet. To me that would be an awesome job. I sit here for 8 hours and get paid by the hour and then do surveys (which some days I do really well) and get paid for that as well. Sounds like a dream come true.
As for drama, I guess it depends on the people you are with, there are men I have worked with that are more dramatic than and women every thought about being. People in general seem to like to gossip and cause drama.
Yeah, I would have to move if I wanted a really good job. There are no jobs here, and most of the jobs that are available are given to family members/friends, so I'd need an "in" to get a job in my town. I don't have a computer at home (and don't really want to get one) so online schooling wouldn't be for me. I feel like I've been through college already. I don't want to go to school again. Plus, I have anxiety and depression I deal with on a daily basis. I'd like to get "better" before pursuing any type of schooling, and I know that probably sounds like a weak excuse but my number 1 focus needs to be on me right now.
The downtime at my job may seem nice, but trust me, it gets boring fast. I'd rather just work 8 hours straight and do the surveys in my spare time.
My ex-husband is a drama queen so there are males that like to gossip/create drama, but just being in an office filled with women (and me being a man) I can see how women like to start things. Like yesterday, I called our receptionist "the receptionist," and she took offense to that!! She's an "administrative assistant." I've heard the director call her a receptionist, for God's sake. Today, when I came in, she didn't even say hello to me. Just a very rude person.
