Do you enjoy your job?

I spent ten years in a job I hated with people who bullied, b!tched and talked behind my back from the day I started.
If I went on holiday I would spend the full two weeks panicking about having to go back to work.

I finally plucked up the courage and got another job in a smaller company. It was a promotion and a step up the ladder.
I love my new job. I love the company, the people I work with, the boss. Pretty much everything about it.

If you're unhappy in your current job and are doing something you don't love, don't wait ten years like I did to make the change.

I am really unhappy in my job, feel I have been overlooked and given a less demanding position which I did not want and I really don't understand why. I don't really like all my colleagues, I am quite an introvert and they are always arranging 'boozy nights out', which is not for me. I'ts not that I don't drink but I can't stand silly behavior (that makes me sound like a miserable old thing but I'm not at all). I have been searching for a new job but I will be 60 next year and this definitely counts against me. I have to work, I have no choice but believe me, despite a good education I would do anything else. I hadn't thought of Tescos but will give that a go. Dreading going back to work.

Love my job. I used to be in the Police and thought I could make a difference, you can but not a big enough difference to actually change it for the better long term. People say "if I change one life for the better" etc. well that wasn't good enough for me.

I oversee some very sensitive work that changes peoples lives. I make sure all is in place to create the perfect road to recovery.

The bad side is, I don't get any thanks for the hard work but always slammed down when it goes wrong.

My job title and what I do doesn't really match.

I love my job too, but it took years and years for me to get into a job that I enjoyed!
