I love what I do....I see people at their lowest, but I also get to see the very best too. I hate the hours I do (especially as am facing working again all weekend!), I hate the pay, I hate the red tape.... But after the heart ache and the sadness, watching the progress is amazing! What do you want me to be? | |

Currently out of work, but have some things lined up in the same line of work and yes I love what I do. I also love my sideline of PD work. “During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act” - George Orwell | |

Because I have to. The reason I play the lottery is to keep the dream alive of winning enough money to not have to work, but have a reasonable life style. I have been out of work and hated it. What I hated was not having any money, not that I wasn't working. It is much better to have a job that you don't mind that one you really hate. I did have a job that I really dreaded going to and it can destroy your life. I have a job I don't mind too much now. Like many though, it is not too safe at the moment. I could never envisage actually enjoying work. Often, when I chat with friends about winning lots of money, people will say to me about how they wish they had a big, flash car, big house, loads of foreign holidays etc. I always say, that although they may be nice, buying my freedom from the "Slavery" of having to work would mean much more to me than anything else.

25% of the time I enjoy it. 50% of the time I can live with it. 15% of the time, I hate it. 10% of the time I want to beat some of my colleagues to death with my stapler. But hey, it pays the bills and keeps me off the streets. | |

I had to think about it, but I've come to the conclusion that I do love my job. It's fairly unique, I think... I work with a bunch of guys that border on being psychopathic, I believe. Yet they're highly intelligent too. No two days are the same and I never know for sure what'll happen next. Real danger is ever-present, but I've great faith in those around me, and I'd like to think likewise! And so... A job working with highly intelligent (bordering psychotic) people, danger and the constant threat of the totally unexpected. Yep, that'll do it.

I used to REALLY love my job. But over the past six months, for varying reasons, I have to come to love it a little bit less. And oddly not loving it so much makes me a little sad.
I think I need to get out more. | |

I love my job. It is also an interest, so it does not really seem like work, which is just as well as I often work ridiculously long hours. I just cannot stand many people who work in my industry...
