    I despise my current job. I have been there for nearly 12 years which makes it really hard to walk away from all of that time. We got a new manager who is an absolute prick. He thinks that the world revolves around him, and if you aren't willing to kiss his *** - he gets pissed off. I am not the type to kiss ***. So we aren't getting along very well. And even though 8 of my 10 reviews have been exceeding expectations, he now is saying that I don't know how to do my job. GRR!! I just don't know what to do. With the economy the way it is, I am afraid to just go some place else that would be a pay cut, yet I feel like if I stay he is going to eventually find away to fire me. So while I don't really mind the job in itself - I hate the politics of it.

    perfect jobs don't exist, perfect careers do. Owning your own business is great. Especially a business that brings in lots of money. I don't have a job yet and never had one yet. I'm 15 btw. i'll start working next year most likely. Don't know where or what but i'll probably start by volunteering at a hospital. I want to be a surgeon one day and what better way to experience the hospital environment and the setting at which doctors work then volunteer my services and lend a helping hand. I just hope i don't end up doing bed pants. Most likely i won't because my father is a doctor and he'll probably hook me up with working near doctors and not bedpants.

    My job is pretty good.

    Not very challenging.

    But it's nice and easy.

    I answer the phone and answer questions on Yahoo pretty much all day. Good for now. Great company. If I got promoted, even better.

    My real passion is psychology. Will be my true profession in the near future. Getting plently of practice on Yahoo. Guiding those who need help. To answer your question, I'm pretty comfortable in my job. But I don't intend to be here for the rest of my life.

    I currently work at a Taco Bell. It is not what I aspire to, but it's better than other jobs I've had and the pay is pretty decent. It's better than the job where they made me work off the clock to avoid overtime. Or the job where people came in high and the manager just laughed about it.

    I love my job - Although I'm needed sometimes 16 hours a day, I wouldn't give it up. I have been offered more money elsewhere but it is the people I work with along with the environment and a job that is challenging in the area which I not only excel but enjoy doing.

    Yes I like it. Same thing every day, used to it, know what I am doing. I do not know what job I really want anyway (although I would love to act and sing but that is very hard to get into and get paid for it) so now I am happy in my office job.

    I'm pretty happy with my job. I work at Barnes Noble full time, and I'm a full time student. So the whole "never having any time" thing sucks, but I do love my job. I like the people I work with, I'm obsessed with books, I like to keep busy, and I love putting things in order. So it's pretty much awesome for me.

    I just started training 2 months ago, and I am now utilizing the information I've crammed in my brain. I'm happy, I get a raise next week and the benefits are awesome as well.

    I hate it. I stay because I get paid more there than I would anywhere else. I work retail and everyday I get at least one nasty b*tch who has a chip on her shoulder and feels like taking it out on me.

    All I've ever really wanted was to have my own business.
