Have you ever regretted the job that you have chosen?

I have regretted my job choices over the years many times. I think being unsatisfied in a job is what has pushed me in the past to move on. Sometimes we just don't know how we will feel about a job until we are already committed to it.

At times I like my job but most of the times I regret having applied at my recent job. Actually, I also regret what I took up in college. I am a nursing graduate. I felt like my college degree allows me to have a very limited work/job choices. I really wanted to be in the fashion/beauty industry. A job that have a relationship with the two will be absolute love for me. For now, I am trying to stay and love the job that I have. I just think of motivations so that I will be inspired to go to work everyday.

sometimes yes and sometimes not. and every human would feel this way i guess. we are human who will never satisfied even some people are jealous with us. once we get something, we want to have it more and more

No, I'm not satisfied with the job that I have chosen and I regret. Of course it was a good place to work in at first until some new chap comes in and starts back-stabbing everyone and causes a lot of commotion in the office until you get the feeling that you just don't want to go into the office. For me, I just don't like to work in this kind of environment. I like to work in a place where everyone is like a family. What kind of job doesn't matter to me, so long as the environment is nice and peaceful.

My job is teaching,I have regretted my job surely,but I have to cherish it,it's not good for me to change a new job for my age.I can see my job has brought me so much invisible racking that I have to accept.I have to study further endlessly,or I can't follow the developing sociaty and cannot work well...

Yeah I love my job now. I have the problem of getting into a job and loving it for a couple of months, and then getting bored quite quickly. My last job I really liked for the first three months and then started to really dislike going there and before you knew it I quit. Now I think about where I'm working and how it should play out in the long term before I get started.

Hi Dear Didi! I am really lucky person that I am in a job which I enjoy a lot! My job is a passion for me. Right from my childhood I had a tendency to accept the challenges and to accomplish them successfully! I like doing the things in different way to get success! I never liked to sit on a chair and make the papers black and white! I am a nature lover and I love animals a lot! So taking all these factors inti consideration, I have joined the professional course of Veterinary Science and did my Post Graduation in Animal Genetics and breeding in flying colors! Now having done specialization today I am a Senior Resident Veterinarian,serving for one of the reputed Stud farms in my country. Here I am looking after 350 Thoroughbreds. Basically we breed these horses and raise them till the age of two before we sell them for races. My job involves a lot many challenges and I am really like this profession just because of that. I play multiple roles on the farm, like I need to play the role Nutritionist, Gynaecologist, Physician, Surgeon, Pediatrician etc.I really enjoy doing all these jobs and i am really happy when I get results on the Racetrack when the horses from our farm, perform well there! For that matter, we have created a record on National Race track by winning maximum number of races in one tear so far, just last year only! We have won two National Derby races within a span of last 6 years! I love and adore my job and I am too passionate about it, as it gives me not only name, fame and wealth but it also provides me an immense satisfaction,which is a great thing for me! Thanks !

The most important thing is to do what you like, do everything with passion.Yes i am satisfied with my job because i love what i do

I had gone through a frustrating period once. That was when I was with the previous job. It was not the kind of job I liked and the people around were not cooperative at all. So, I finally decided to leave that. And, so fortunately, I now have a job, perfect and most enjoyable. I am enjoying every single day at my work place.

I have changed jobs several times because they were not satisfying. I would have changed my last job as well because it had too much overtime. Unfortunately by then I was too old to find a new one. What I really regret was leaving my first job. It was boring but if I had handled it better it might have led to a better career. I do sometimes wonder what would have happened had I stayed and applied for promotion. I was a clerical assistant and having passed my exams I could have applied to be a clerk and then gone to uni at night time. I loved going to uni but it never got me a job.

I am not really satisfied, but it works (FOR NOW). It's definitely not something I want to do forever, that's for sure. It stresses me out, isn't very stable, and I disagree with a lot of upper management's decisions. I am not all that passionate about work, although I'm a hard worker and don't usually slack off. So... Yeah. I hope that one day I have a job in a field I'm passionate about (IE, law OR criminal justice) but today's not that day (obviously).

i have a love hate relationship with my job i love managing people i hate letting them go but it's part of my job so i'm more into developing people and their careers it satisfies me to see them move up

Yes,ever. But i think it is also experience. Actually,almost 85% people in the world do not like their job,but they must do.

I have never regret a job that I have chosen because I look at each job as a stepping stone. I'm currently at a job for 8 years so I will probably stay here till I'm old and wrinkled. But I do regret not going for a position that would've probably leaded me into a world of finance and higher paychecks instead of the position now where has lower wages but better benefits.

my hubby did. he once took a lower paying job but was offered a better job a couple of weeks later, but he didnt want to be disloyal so he stuck with the first job.

Couple years ago, I applied for a job that I have to work from 11am to 9 pm as a public relations officer, what I had to do was try to sell party plans to the clients and be socilaiable with the clients all the time. I thought it was very tiring and demanding. The working hours was long, it wasn't even the matter, it was too late for me to get off work, I would rather going to work early at 8 or 9 and leave work early; and I realized that selling wasn't my thing... I didn't have a sweet mouth that I could convince people to join those plans... I resigned that job very soon.
