I used to love my job until my boss got marginalized for having her domestic partner as a 6 figure consultant. Now I got two pitbulls for bosses and they want to know so many details that I'm losing interest in my work.

I'm talking about weekly task lists and 2 x 2 check in's at the begininng and ending of each day. I can't believe that they have time for this crap!!

I work at a radio station. I'd like it if I worked during the day and had a day off, but I work nights and have no days off.

I'm a Lithography Technician at Intel...

This job has it's days, that's for sure! But overall, I can't think of another job (within reason) that I would like more.


For 10+ years, I was an automotive technician... That was an absolutely miserable way of making a living.

If my next CPU has a carburetor I'll know who to blame.

I'm happy, but at times.. it gets boring.
I can't imagine someone being happy if they do the same thing for more than a year..

even playing a game.. I love playing WC3..but playing too much gets a bit boring..

I think even a porn star.. like having sex everyday.. I'm sure in a year... uh.. nevermind... I don't think they're bored.

I used to hate my job, the then I joined up with this cool network marketing company. Now I'm making bucks and don't have to work 8-5 anymore. Its not one of those dmbass companies that try to sell something stupid either. Unlimited income. Seems to just keep growing and growing. w00t!!!

PM me if anyone wants details otherwise, I'll leave it at that.

I'm not allowed to say who my employer is, but where is the option in the poll ..."you don't really care for the job/work itself, but the people are what make it worth showing up everyday for"?
The work isn't the best work, but the visiting during slow times is the fun part.

I'm a member of the IT department for the corporate offices of a Top 10 Wholesaler in the US. Some of my hats include, help desk levels 1-4, desktop support, network admin, database analyst, and most currently pos analyst. Obviously I wear too many hats and could use more money .

I hate my 9 to 5... its not all that bad and it could be much worse but I'm sick of sitting at a desk all day and having to put up with management. Now my weekend job of delivering pizza I LOVE!!! I would only work there if it offered medical insurance and I wasn't in so much debt.

I voted that I love my work.
Only problem is that I only get to spend about half the time at my job doing what I really consider "my work" to be.
I'm a software dev for a large "infoimaging" company. Think photographic film, but our plant actually makes medical laser imaging films for MRI's, CRT's, mammograms, etc.
I really love developing software.
There is nothing quite as satisfying as getting something finished that works well and helps people do their jobs better, faster, easier.
But what I don't love is dealing with FDA regulations since our films are considered a medical device, spending hours doing monotonous testing, writing technical documentation, and dealing with stupid politics.
Nothing is as irritating as spending 2 days writing a simple application, then taking a month to get all the documentation and validation done. I understand the need to have good validation for software that could impact the quality of a product that is used as a tool for diagnosing things like cancer, but dealing with the FDA is a definite PITA.
