I wish I didnt have to work. The thought of it depressses me. I work PT and I still hate it.
Just venting. |

When I was younger, I loved working (earning $) but hated my jobs (office admin or tech positions)
Now, I love my job (teaching) but hate working (time away from my kid, health issues). |

OP, I've never understood the notion of working for fulfillment.
I work to earn my leisure time. Possible exception is being your own boss. But working for someone else as a form of purpose and fulfillment is really idiotic. It's weird around here how people define themselves by what they do. |

Imagine being paid for what you like to do. In my case, I am a research scientist. I love what I do. I would do this type of work even if I did not need the money. So, I get a decent paycheck every two weeks doing what I enjoy (80% of the time) doing. Seems like a good deal for me. |

| Honestly I think the majority of people tolerate work. There are a lucky few who LOVE their jobs. I completely envy that. All the things I love to do would make me barely any income however. |

People want fulfillment because most people are spending 8+ hours a day at their job. That's a lot of hours to spend somewhere you don't like. |

| Hate my job, hate my boss. Used to not be like this, but I'm overworked, underpaid, and tired of getting kicked around. Am looking for a PT job that doesn't cause me to gain 20lbs from the stress. |

I have had roles I LOVED and roles I hate.
Often it is more dependent on my team than the role itself. I am just getting back from a 4 week vacation so it has been tough to settle back in (which is why I am on DCUM  .
Anyway I really wish I didn't have to work but I haven't figured out how to be a SAHM and a single parent. That said if you HATE your work every day, every year, it is time to look for a new job. If you LOVE your work every day, every year then you need to share your prescription with the rest of us. |

I hate my job.
Actually working is a drag. I've been looking but my likes are sleep, sex, food and shopping. Since I can't get paid well to do any of those, I'll keep going to the job. |
