I firmly believe that you don't have to love your job to live a happy life. You just can't LOATHE your job.

That shite's not sustainable.

That's the best thing about my job. I put it down at 4pm and leave every day. I don't have to think about it again till 730 the next am.

I don't work extra or worry about it when I'm not there. I love it, but I an underachiever though.

Hate it.

90 plus year family business. It's all I've known but I always wonder what venturing out would be like

I like it. Probably could make a bit more with a different company but my current environment is pretty damn hard to top.

I suppose I tolerate mine. I look at it as an exchange of a pre-determined amount of hours out of the day for an agreed-upon dollar amount.

I like it, but it’s also about all I know how to do anymore.

Mine is moderately stressful. It's usually very slow from Thanksgiving through New Years though so it's pretty laid back right now.

I have days where it wears on me, but i do love my job - has allowed me to travel to 48 states on the corporate dime, ad has allowed me to see a lot of this great country.

Facilities manager. It's kind of like being a lighthouse tender most of the time.

Scenery is fantastic.

Kind of a catch 22 for me. I’m in sales. Not bragging, but I’m very good at what I do, just don’t want to do it anymore. In the process of going back to school to remedy

Like it


I get a lot of autonomy, my assistants are great people, I am paid well, and I like the industry

I hate dealing with the bottom feeders of society that get mixed in with good people, dumb kids, and a terrible employment pool

Loved it 20 years ago, just tolerate it now. I can see hate from here though.

If I take a step back and look at it as a whole. I really like it. Challenging, interesting, secure, and good pay.

I'd still rather be Marlins Man and just travel around going to sporting events though.

I love my job, love my career and love the pay. I couldn't ask for a better thing to do every day.
