Come on people be honest do youi actually LIKE what you do?

I used to love handling motor claims, but sinceI moved into commercial property I detest it and cannot wait for my knee operation to get me out of here!

Every day drags like hell!!

So be honest, how many of you actually enjoy your work?

My current job is pants

okay i get paid more than natty, but i don't get paid enough for what I do

I'm microbiologist testing foods making sure you lot don't all die of listeriosis or something equally nasty!

However I handed in my notice yesterday :D , I going to work in a laboratory in Bury getting paid loads for doing less hours and the best thing is one of the only other nice people I work with has got a job there too and we start at the same time :D

I don't think the boss is chuffed at the fact that the team is going from seven to four within a week, I feel sorry for the people staying there as the work is going to be mental!
