Is better you start liking it again good for you. Cos, there is no job out there, unless you already have one waiting for you. As for me, i don't have a job over 2-3 years, i finish with my NYSC.

ms pookie: I loved my job when i started, i couldnt wait to be at work the next day,i craved for moments with my colleagues even though i dont discuss much with them or get personal.

Presently, I hate my job! It is intense. I feel like i am trapped with no way out,my job is killing me and sucking out my soul, i also fantasize about my workplace burning down. i also sometimes feel jumping in front of a train could be less painful than going to work.

I consistently complain, whine, and moan about my job to friends, family, and anyone who will listen.

Sometimes, i invent new immediate family members who just passed on so i can take bereavement leave. My manager blows me kisses when no one is watching and tells how much he has missed me when i miss a day at work.

I have to give myself incentives all day long, i always want some water, i want to visit the restroom, just to b off my desk.

I enjoy having meetings outside my office, even though i get terminally bored.

The voice of my supervisor drives me insane, makes me wanna shove a stick down his throat. He just irritates me! i havent even had a vacation this year and he takes constant vacations. he recently asked me to resign because i fell ill and couldnt report to work for a day. He also has an overweening ego.

I used to love this place, i worked hard. now, i just make silly mistakes. i cant continue to be under this strain but i cant do anything about it either....well, i dont want to.

Colleagues and i discussed our job interest, the feeling is mutual but we cant explain it.

I HATE MY JOB...WHAT ABOUT YOU

I certainly don't love my job. Love is such a strong word. But I enjoy working in the hi-tech sector.
Doing what I do, working with technology, interacting with tech people all over the world from Nigeria, it's really cool. Designing stuff, tech stuff, that people actually use in Nigeria, gives me a lot of satisfaction. And most of all; there are no old fogies in my industry.

We all know each other, been in the different telcos since 2000 or thereabouts, so the atmosphere is pretty good. 20-somethings, 30-somethings, and even 40-somethings relate to each other pretty well, cos the ages cut across various cadres. There are junior staff who are over 40, and senior staff who are in their 20s (I shyt you not!). Then there are people from all over the world, expats from everywhere.

Not to mention, the pay's quite good too wink

I HATE MY JOB...WHAT ABOUT YOU

Is it your type of work that you hate or your current work environment? Sounds like you need to take a nice long vacation to allow your emotions time to reset.

Seconded. Sometimes a break can help to take the edge off, and put life into perspective.

If I might ask, what kind of work is that, that won't give a vacation?
