I hate my present job. The job is good, better paying but still I am not satisfactory with the job. I always think of a new job. Why this is happening? Is this happens to everybody. What about you?

most people feel the way you do.why do you work?for money,right? but sometimes you have to find a job that will make you happy too.not just the salary itself.or you have to find happiness in the job you have right now.sometimes,it's all in the mind.think about things first...

I understand where you are coming from but seriously I wish I had a job to hate. That is how I feel not having a job for almost two years. So I think you should try to find a reason to love your job and be happy. Jobs are hard to come by at these times.

i guess you must not hate your job and appreciate it instead no matter how hard it is. just think that your one of those lucky person who have job right now. unlike me, i cant find one even if i want too coz of my situation. also imagine those people who really need to wake up everyday just to look for job and yet they went home failed. those people who are begging for job and still looking for their luck to find job. i guess you must just find way on how to love your job than hate it.

I hate it too. But it pays good compared to my other friends' jobs that's why I'm still sticking to it. In out current situation, it's best to just stick to it than find a new one because of the economic crisis.

I love my job, so I'm really sorry for those who hate their. I know that money is really important, and for most of us it's the only reason why we'r working at all, but i believe it's important to do something you enjoy.

I do not hate my present job,but I cannot gather some useful knowledge in limited time,I often think of a new job,and you know,it is a difficult to look for a satisfactory job.in my opinion,if you can do what you want to do,if your boss is not unsatisfied with you,if you can get enough money for youself,you should do your best and enjoy your work.

There seems always to be a dilemma between job satisfaction and high pay. Probably this is what bothers you so much now.Althougn I have not have a job yet(still a student),I have had several part-time jobs before,including distributing leaflets,tutoring and translation work,among which I like translation most because it can be done in a empty room without anyone disturbing around me. I used to think distributing leaflets interesting. Imagine you have stacks of paper to give to others,but it turned out to be a very tiring job after I first did it. I should not simply say that you need to cherish your job and try to seek joy in it,which perhaps will be taken as hollow comment finally.My suggestion is that you sink in your coach and meditate. Think it over what kind of job is ideal and suitable for you?I would pray to God if I don't know the answer and He always has the best arrangement for you. Hope you can find the answer soon and release yourself from pain

Actually most of the cases people quit a job is because of a bad BOSS.If you work in an environment that demotivate you,or discourages you,there is a little chance of making a mark.So you should shift to other company that offers you respect more than money.

Yes! Everyday. But in a way I am thankful because it actually changed my outlook in a way that I'm more of a business minded now than before. I'm always open and thinking of what business to start, how to make money online, work for myself all because I hate my job :)
