It pays the bills and my feelings are neutral.
If I won 18 million in the lottery tomorrow, I’d never return. And I own the business.
I love my job. I enjoy the work, I get to wear jeans every day, it’s low stress, and pays a little over $100K/year.
I enjoy being a doctor and the particular specialty I’ve chosen. Some days are particularly good. Usually that’s when I’ve seen something unusual, made a difficult diagnosis or really been able to “fix” something major in a patient’s health. The particular institution I work for I’m less wild about.
I used to love my job, but I had to downgrade it to like. Ever since I announced I was pregnant my boss has failed to pass on information, not included me in decisions that previously she would have, and generally it seems like she has signed off on me. I was always planning on comming back after mat leave, but the past few months has me reconsidering my options.
Which is really too bad. I did love the job.
Depends … are they hot?
I love what I do, and I work for myself, so I am totally in charge, and I love that too. I like being able to interact with all of my engineering colleagues at different companies without all the territorial b.s. which usually accompanies engineering work.
I love working from home and being able to handle household issues & projects while simultaneously working on engineering projects.
This is absolutely my “dream” job. I could make a lot more money going to work for one of the big firms downtown - probably could make partner, blah blah, but money doesn’t translate to happiness for me. I’d rather have my freedom. 
In all honesty I had to go with the first choice; soul-sucking defines it. That said, it’s not the work itself or the customers that I hate, but the work group dynamic. I think I could love my job if just one or two people were to get promotions and move to another office.
I went with the first choice. I can’t really complain about the pay, but the job itself, along with the dynamics where are I work make it hard for me to get up and go in every day.
Expectations from our command and our customers are unrealistic and we’re about to become even more short staffed. Over the course of the last two years, I’ve spent months on my own in that office trying to do my job and the work of three other analysts because they take extended leaves or leave in conjunction with training.
I’m so burned out I feel like I’m about to crumble into a little ash pile. I’m looking to get out and hopefully will find something soon.
I really envy those that love their jobs. I would love to feel that way about mine.
I HATE taters’ job! They treat her badly. :mad:
I love my job - I manage a team that creates online training modules for a very large consumer electronics company. I get to be creative everyday and I really like the company and the people I work with. I’m new to management and that’s been a bit of a challenge! I have a ton to do, so every day is busy busy and the time just flies.
Pay is good, benefits are good, employee discounts are good 
We have an absolutely beautiful new office building (top level cafeteria, employee gym) and I have a reasonable commute.
I made kind of leap coming here (leaving my wonderful job at a very large software company) but it’s turned out to be GREAT!
I like it. Working from home really helps with my sleep problems and enables me to have a dog and never have to take time off if my daughter’s ill. The work itself is not the most interesting ever, but it’s OK - I get paid to watch TV! There is room for progress, if I get certain software or take a master’s course. The only downsides are that it’s not all that regular and the pay isn’t that high, but it’s manageable.
I wouldn’t choose to do anything else. I love my job.
95% of the time, they pay me way too much for what I do; the other 5%, they can’t pay me enough.
I’ve only had one really bad scare as a result of my job, so I’ve gotten lucky. In February, I was in a fight and was bitten. A week of taking an HIV titer while waiting for her blood tests to come back was… Frightening. Her tests and mine were all clear. Follow up tests in August, and a little scar and a good story will be all I have left to show.
After working for a company which was rapidly getting more and more political – bad enough that the VP I reported to quit – so I started working for a super nice guy with a sexy wife.
Sometimes I miss having other people around but you can’t beat the commute time when you do consulting out of your home.
Somewhere between Most days are pretty good, but it’s not really what I’d like to be doing. and I like my job, and often find it rewarding. I voted for the former because while I generally like my job, the people I work with, the industry I work in, the amount of money I make (for the most part), it’s kind of an endless string of tasks and while I get praise from my colleagues, the most I get from on high are 3 month extensions of my contract (which works for me, but still…).
Somewhere between “I like my job, and often find it rewarding”, and “I love my job, it’s my life’s work”.
I chose the former because I do have some bad days at work, once in a while. But not too often.
I like what I do. I get some variety, work mostly unsupervised (I tell my boss what my job is, for the most part), and I get paid.
It’s some of the people I have to interact with, and of course the bullshit that comes with working in public service, that I sometimes have a problem with.
Most of the poll choices seem to imply something that you go to a place and do on a daily basis. I’m a freelancer, so that doesn’t really apply. I like what I do quite a bit and enjoy that aspect. What I don’t like is having to market myself to find work, and having periods of downtime when I’m not earning anything.
I’m torn. I love my job and I love the people. It is a wonderful place to work and I feel very lucky to have been hired there 3 years ago. However, now that I am pregnant I am feeling very conflicted. I feel like I really, really want to get a part time job or work from home and spend most of my time with the baby once it is born but I won’t have the option of working part time or working from home or anything with my current position. Now we are kind of back and forth between “I need to go back to work because the job is so great and I don’t want to chance losing it” and “I need to quit my job and find another that better suits my scheduling needs so I can be with the baby” and I waffle back and forth between the two choices about 50 times every day.
I picked ‘it pays the bills and my feeling are neutral’. The job that pays my rent is working as a sales associate/office assistant at a small kitchen and bath showroom/installer. I like my boss and co-workers and am comfortable there, but the work isn’t interesting. Lately we’ve been so slow I have to work hard to look busy.
I am in the process of getting a new job that will pay the bills, where I will work with cheese, chocolate, and coffee (and customers) for higher pay, with benefits, and with more options for advancement. I’m pretty excited about this job and expect to enjoy it much more.
I feel that every corporate job is basically the same and if someone offered me more money, I would change jobs without thinking about it.
I feel bad for not loving my job because it’s the best paying and best atmosphere of my career, but I can’t see myself staying there forever. I also feel while I’m working in the field I want I’m not in the specific job I want. I don’t think I’ll be here for more than two more years (if that…).
