    No job currently, since I quit it to go back to school. But, last job I work was assistant manager at a motel. Wasn't horrible except during one major week out of the year with the most tourists. I usually worked overnights, so I just had to keep track of paperwork and check in the stragglers. Hunting season was nice, few people but the hunters were pretty polite. Benefit to working overnight at a desk, I got to read and game for a good several hours. Worst part, the owner was an unmitigated bitch. We were all happy on days she went to the gun range instead of coming to the motel.
    I'm hoping to be a payroll specialist in the future and work in the family business with my aunt and cousins. Comes with a lot of freedom and I won't get pushed around like I might in other payroll jobs.

    It is not the job itself, but the people you face during your work. Because the job boils down to repetitive work that varies little in between. Just that how the attitude of others and yourself that makes the difference. My very own naggi-vator cum menopause ma'am left the place to supervise another, still does not give me time to read and try to write my own story though.

    Only hate it when management treats human resources too much like resources and less like a human.

    I’m the same. I have things I enjoy and moments we’re I hate it, but if I had to choose a side. I’d say happy, especially the time after work.

    It's not the work that's the problem... it's the existence of other humans at any stage of the work process

    Like someone already said it, I don’t exactly hate or love my jobs to extremes. I mostly do it to get paid and be able to support myself. For different reasons, I have worked in a lot of fields with different kind of people so I’m able to tell what occupations suit my personality more now.
    There’s days I hate to deal with people and there’s days when things go wrong and you can’t help it. But there’s also self satisfaction that comes from simply being able to execute things properly.
    I currently work with translation and interpretation for a very specific situation and it allows me to have free time during the week to be a good housewife, cook homemade meals everyday, keep everything clean and in order. But I actually hate typing and writing about subjects that I’m not interested in so... it’s somewhat boring and mental draining...and paperwork...blergh. But sometimes, when I find the right words or when I get praised for doing a perfect job by my supervisors (they’re very nice people) it becomes meaningful. I wasn’t very good at it in the beginning but a lot of people helped me through so the reason I still work there is to help them out more than anything else.
    I also do part-time job at a kitchen because I wanted to try it (I love cooking) and I needed another job to save extra money. I get mocked by the same older male coworker constantly for having the highest degree of education there and still washing dishes but I don’t care. I love seeing people posting pictures on Instagram of food I plated it because I do it with the utmost care as I would serve them for my own family. It’s also a craft beer place so I get a very high quality free pint every night after the job is done~
    The people that work in a kitchen though...they have quite the character...but still, my most stressful job so far was being a team manager in a medium financial company. To this day it’s still very confusing how I even landed that job but I became terribly overweight from stress eating, I made myself memorize 207 names of people and where they were seated in each floor so I knew whom I had to talk to in each situation, I had to fire/remove some nasty colleagues out of my team, deal with crazy deadlines, stayed overnight at the company with my boss proofreading documents... the savings from that job allowed me to come to Tokyo but... I don’t think I would be able to do it again.

    No. If I hated my job I'd get a new one, staying in jobs you hate is masochism.

    I'll be 50 in a couple months, seen a lot of people who hate their jobs, hate their lives, etc. I've mentioned in other threads, but if you hate it, change it. There's plenty of free skill training, headhunters, temp agencies, etc. out there.
