re: Does anyone really like their job?

I love my boss and co-workers

I’ve worked a similar number of years and also currently a Director level. I’ve never looked forward to a Monday like I do a weekend.

My job satisfaction typically about a 5/10 like now but that is a whole lot better than the 2/10 of my previous job from 2021 until late 2023.

I’m considering another change that would be a little more comp and more likelihood of bonus but concerned about getting into another 2/10 situation.

My current job is a good target bonus but one of those PE models where it’s based on meeting Budget which has virtually a zero percent chance of paying out anything. I should have asked more about that in hindsight.

I get to do science. I get to save lives. I don't actually have to see the people I help save. I really enjoy work most days, but it is still work so some of the stuff sucks and some days suck,

I like my job. Still, if I ever had a huge windfall such as winning the lottery or so, I would quit.

I like my job, but it is still work.

I like it more when I’m not there and remember fondly all the bullshite I do with my buddies. Then I go to work and do the bullshite and rent why I was happy to be home and off for the weekend

YES. I love my job.

In fact, when other people see me at work, they tell me I have the coolest job.

I am a camera operator for golf (all tours).

My job is about a 3/10. There are plenty of good people around but ownership is a train wreck. I envy those of you who enjoy the office.

I like payday

Would like to know what the people that love their job do?

I am a consulting electrical engineer. Mainly DoD and Department of Energy nuclear facilities but also private sector power plants and facilities. It isn't the work or the people, its what I choose to do and I do so as an informed decision...bad days and good are both the result of actions on my part throughout life. That is the secret to life....its yours, own it. Have people fricked with me in my life? Yes. I just don't allow them to do so until its is crippling....I am responsible for my self and my destiny. Even health problems are simply nature doing what it does and are often the result of conscious choices we make. Life is too short to be full of regret and misery and being a victim....I simply refuse to be a victim because everything that has ever happened to me was either unavoidable or the result of a choice or action on my part.....
