Most of us have to work for a living. Our paychecks put food on the table and make us live a comfortable life. Some of us are lucky to have a job that we like and something we look forward to. I once read a quotation which goes this way:" Love your job, and you'll never work a single day of your life." I'm lucky I love my job because if I don't, everyday would be a calvary for me. What about you? Do you like your job? Is it something you look forward to or is it something you dread?

I generally do leave work with a song in my heart because I look forward to coming home to my husband. Its not that I don't love my job, but at the end of the day I would love to just be at home relaxing with the man I love.

That is so romantic, being with your husband in the evenings. Who would not want to come home with that scenario. Thanks for the comment.

I love my present job but I do not want to continue it any longer as I have dream of setting up my own consultancy business; I'm working hard to accumulate as many resources as possible so that I can make it happen early.

Wow, putting up your own business is cool. That way you won't have to consult a boss now and then. When it's your own, you'll never get tired of working. Thanks.

That's fascinating. I love to play the guitar in college. I know a few guitar songs, like "The Guitar Man", You've got a friend." etc. You'll indeed enjoy working. Thanks for the comment.

I work from home. That I like. I make less than I used to. That took some getting used to. But I am happy about being able to be here for my daughter. And now I have a new baby on the way. I know I made the right decision. I don't dread it, no.

There are times that I feel burn-out but it doesn't mean I hate my job.Sometimes I just need the right attitude even if I'm tired going to work.

Toxic times will always make you burnt out. I agree that one should find the right attitude in order to appreciate your work. Thanks for the comment.

For the past four years of working as a teacher, I've thought of transferring to another career where BPO centers were considered then but, I just can't leave my place as an educator despite the low financial marketing of teachers. Thank heavens that even if I don't earn that much money, I earn a lot of respect, joy and appreciation from hundreds of pupil I have trained, plus the love that they offer to you. And those things, have kept me grounded for the title of being an Educator.

Yes, I'm always being grateful for my job. I make a habit of generating positive aura or positive energy every morning to make my work easier and productive. If you start your morning with a smile everyday, you will feel happy and contented.

Well for the first time in my life I am laid off! Construction is really slow here right now. I am sure I will be back when things pick up but that could be a while. Luckily the hubby is still plugging along. I always liked work and never remember hating any of my jobs. I encouraged my children to do what they liked best. I have the same thinking as what you quoted.
