Many people are unhappy with their jobs. They feel like they are just going through the motions of it.
How do/would you make the most out of an ordinary work day? Say for example, you're alone in your workplace and you just have no one to talk to. You do the same tasks over and over again.
What would you do to enjoy it and make it special?

I see to it that I will have music to listen to so that it will ease the boredom that I am feeling.

prioritize and reproduce gratitude to God, that's what I would do if in a situation like that you mean ...
indeed many people who do not get along on a job, but he should be able to see how hard people look for a job at this time

Thank you. Yes, I agree with you. When you do your work as if you're doing it for God, you are energized in a different way. He also said that people should really work hard to provide food for the table. No matter how hard or boring the job is. He doesn't like sloth.

I try to take everyday as it comes. It is not easy to handle problematic students. But I do try my best to my ability. Sometimes I manage to do my work brilliantly since I do receive coperation from my students and colleagues. Sometimes I have to struggle against my own apathy and that of the students. When I am in total disaser I end u doing some mylotting.

I know very well how that feels. I am not a teacher but when I was in high school I always reported in front of the class, and it was really frustrating when my fellow classmates looked bored. I know that my reporting was good; it was just that they were not very interested in the lesson.

Success at work depends a lot on a person's own attitude. If you can think of reasons to be happy each and every day you will sail through work. The way I used to do it was this
Monday: A great day, the start of a new week, everyone is fresh and in a good mood with happy tales of weekend fun.
Tuesday: Tuesdays are quieter, things are more relaxed with no or little pressure.
Wednesday: Halfway through the week, at the end of today only 2 more days
Thursday: A busy day, pay day for a lot of people so that in itself is special.
Friday: a super busy day, people are tired but all look forward to the weekend. Be the bigger person and stay cheerful. You won't have to come back for 2 days! YaY!!

I am in the office alone but I do not feel unhappy. Instead, I wish my boss never come in so frequently so I do not have work to do. Because she and he will call up to talk to me and I have to give in.
Most of the time I find work to do like filing the long time stack up documents and answering calls.
I feel free because I do not watch by them in the office, though!
He...he..
