Not much.
It is too unchallenging. (If that is even a word)
I would hope to have more work to do that is new and where I can learn and experience more.
I like the type of work I do, but lately there's nothing new in the company. It gets boring.
 
I don't like my job at all

It has VERY good pay, but there is constantly a high chance of dying and it's very tiring
 
I don't know if I'm qualified to make an opinion here since I'm relatively young but it's never a smart decision not to have a universal backup plan for yourself.
I see many comments of what I'd best describe as "sub-par jobs" with just enough for the bills and keeping you alive and no room for improvement whatsoever.

I highly encourage you to learn a craft you could make money out of so you'd eventually excel at it to the point if making money out of.
I've taught myself basics in home electrical wiring, plumbing, hand-made crafts, fixing and refurbishing software and hardware of various electronics (phones, consoles, PCs and even home appliances) and recently got into 3D printing.
Soon, I'll receive my first CNC and Laser Ingraver machines to get on that boat, too, and have a desire to learn Android Coding.


My original profession is a physician working for the government sector, place of work is one city iver with daily long drives to get there, facilities are crap and people are racist nomads often making fun of my mixed race.
It's satisfying only when a patient whom actually deserves respect comes along every once in a while but that's a rare case.
Still, it helps pay life expenses and then some (along with my skills and other services).

I'm a Digital Designer in the middle east(The pay here is really really good). I love it since this is my line of work and I have lots of time in my hands. I even do part time on my work hours, that's how good this work and company is. :)
 
I absolutely love my job (ICT technician). It has a good balance of things to do without it being stressful or dull, I have absolutely awesome colleagues, a great boss (though he's ill at the moment) and it's only 20 minutes by bike.

Part of it may have to do with the fact that I know what this job can be like. My first job was way too dull and I was socially pretty isolated. The second job was cutting corners so often I pretty much literally did the work of ten people at the end, yet got barely a "thanks" from above (I nearly had a burnout at the end). Both had a commute time of an hour, which really weighs in in the long run (I basically "save" 80 minutes a day just by being at my current job).

Well, I do some translations for a comic. It's fun to do and I can't complain about coworkers.
I'm gonna try finding a job in a supermarket this summer though (November to February), shouldn't be hard and should give me enough money to buy a new PC.
 
I’m not Japanese, but I’m working making a mein for a restaurant very tradicional Job here in Japan. Feels ok I have time and is not too much tired. It helps me to eat and pay everything.

What you say about a craft is so true. There will always be a demand for craft/trades men/women.
 
My new temp job working the frightdome in las vegas is awsome. I get paid to act batshit crazy for the next month. Ive worked in retail for 6 years it was shit. Ive also been a video game repair tech who also sold jailbreaking and cfw instalations "unoffically" but with the shop owners consent hell it was his idea and why i was hired. I showed him my vita playing supermario64 and he asked how hard was it and how much would i charge him to do it.

Retail is nuts. All the returns, the holiday shoppers, THE HOLIDAY MUSIC. You have to be a certain kind of person with much patients for bullshit and gripes. I would pick up a job to install cfw like /that/, if I could fit it into my schedule. Maybe when I retire, I'll work at a game shop. I'll never stop gaming! Lol
 
You have a real thing about bullying lately, azoreseuropa.

Video I probably should have linked last post, not an amazing video but can be a good jumping off point


Nothing is wrong with about bullying because if I have a kid and I wont send him/her to school because many teachers dont care about students but teaching and get paid!

Not interesting about the youtube, thanks anyway. By the way, a bullying is everyday occurring in schools, college, and even jobs due to suicide, quit and drop out.

Yes, we should talk about bullying sometimes to keep people not to forget about it. The young kids around 4 years old through high school students are our children and our precious, man! I am not parent but I feel them and I have seen them. :teach: Anyway, it is off the point, really.

As long as you are happy with your job then stick with it. If you arent happy with your job then stay with job and looking for one you like then quit it and move to a new job. Happiness is a key!:grog:
 
I work from home as an "IT Consultant" (my "official" title :P) for a company in the UK, so I love it. Easy work, I get to have 2 desktops in my office with 4 monitors so it looks fucking cool, and I can do whatever I want at the same time. Only caveat is the pay isn't as high as it would be if I worked in an office for a company here, but it's enough for me to comfortably afford all my bills and occasionally have extra cash for hobbies and stuff.
