    I'm wondering, do most people try to find jobs they will enjoy
    or are just there for the money






    cause i'm really disliking the company i work for
    so some people are asking me if i'm thinking of switching
    while others just say, "well a job is a job" or "just do the work and go home" or "it's just for the money"





    ADDED A POLL!!

    I once got offered a job that I thought would be really fun
    but it was only half the pay of what i make now

    50% is tooo much of a drop

    I think that everybody will get bored and tired of their jobs gradually. That's why it's profitably to mingle with colleagues you like and have hobbies in common. A good colleague may save a boring day =)

    totally agree
    that's why i had a tough time deciding between two jobs
    one job that was much harder, more hours, but with awesome people all around

    or a more relaxed job less stress

    about the same pay


    only because i have to worry about work visas and junk did i take the more relaxed job
    but i'm hating it
    although it's easier
    becuase i have no drive and no fun, it makes it seem harder
     
  8. try and start your own business, something you like.

    a job is just that ... a job to make money. wherever you go, you'll find the same old crap; the same old crappy people. just deal with it for 8 hours and go home! go for the job that pays you the most, take the money, enjoy with it after the 8 hours!

    it's hard to endure if you don't like the job...there is no passion and enthusiasm, everyday you go to work like a half zombie and work like a robot...for a job that I'm not interested in I'll find it hard to have fun even if I get a high pay..

    i usually get bored at work
    i work at a retail selling... stationary and just a bunch of random stuff..
    but i just find things to entertain myself.. cuz really its just a job..
    if yu dunt like wat yu do just quit that is... if yu just cant stand it..
    once ur used to it and too lazy to quit.. (like me) yu just have to find ways to pass the time or make it fun i suppose =)
