When you don't have work you are longing for a job but when the job already there your mind you want to be relax and no work at all. Specially when you work is full of stress and pressure you want to quit and stay at home. It's been almost 4 months since I left my previous job and now I am about to work again. I don't know yet what would be the nature of my job, I mean what will happen when I start to work again. We need a regular job to sustain not only our daily needs and some wants but also for our family. Are you enjoying you job right now?

It's really is funny how our brain teases us: If we have a job, we want to quit it and just go on a vacation or worst just stay at home. If we have no job, then we apply for job, we are thinking its just so boring being alone at home always.. Hmmm.. sounds funny but it's the reality..

I agree 100%. Who will correct us if we are alone. Right? Company with other human will correct us from our mistakes.

People seem to not be contented on what they have. They always ask for more, and always wants to have more rest and play. Of course, we all need to have a job or something to do to earn money. It's just that we have to pick jobs which we can be happy as well. but not all jobs we can do and we can earn big. We have to sacrifice to learn what is the value of having or earning money from hardwork. If there's an easy job with big pay, most people would want that, of course. but we also need self improvement and growth for we can't have it on easy jobs...

Yeah, I think there are more easy money in illegal matters. that's why some people do join those for the sake of having bread in the table...which is really sad to think.

You are right there mate. If we have work, how we wish to have some holiday - a long one to just relax and enjoy with our family and love ones. When time comes that work is gone, there we long so badly to have it back! A simple fact that we need to survive, we need to work to sustain our daily needs and few wants specially if we are looking for a bright future for our family. Most of us work double time, with sidelines, just to cover up some expenses, or luckily double the earnings to supply what's needed in our family. But it's not avoidable to feel pressure, headache, muscle pains that caused us to wake up every morning thinking "how if I will quit this job and find another better one?"... but what we have now is the best, we just don't appreciate it unless we become jobless. Am an accounting staff right now. There are crucial part of my work, challenging, testing my temper, patience and determination! There are many times that I want to quit, but I able to make up a good decision as I am not a teenager anymore! I need to take responsibility and dedication - whether my work entails me not to sleep 24 hours. So far, I just got an opportunity to go back to school, so I grabbed it... becoming my whereabouts too hectic. But it's manageable, there at many challenges but I am going to ignore them and focus! Anyway - mate am sure you are excited working again! Good luck and be safe always!

Yes salary is not enough here in our country, unless you are promoted for a higher level work status but that's alright mate, that's why when I receive an opportunity to go back to school again I grabbed it without second thought even it's really hard. I am taking BS Accountancy now and I aimed to finish it and become a CPA lols... for bright future lols...

You are 100% right! I have my own family now that I need to support. I have 2 siblings also, I send them to school. Next year they will start in college which is the budget will be more than now. I'm about to finished my 2nd course, I need one year for my business course but because of financial needs, no choice except to go back abroad for better opportunities. I've been working here in our country for more than 6 years but the salary was not enough.

I also have times when I work too much and want to relax and then a week later I relax and want to work. I have come to the conclusion that I should find a job with flexible work hours. This was I can do one day -work, the other day - relax in a week. Means I am working on Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday and have days off on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. That way I don't feel as if I'm working too much nor relaxing too much.

Haha,i am still a student,so i am eager to work.But the people who have worked few years always persuade me to treasure the time in school. I know when we enter into society,there are so many uncertain things happen to us,so we have to undertake some pressure,after a long period of time,it's easy to become tired .After all,the job is repeated so many times. Well,i work in the government now,just for the internship. Though it's very busy ,i like it,because my colleages are very kind. I believe you will like your job now,you know what? Lol,have a nice day.

You will found the enjoyment on your workplace when you are less stress and the office have sometimes a socialization. But if all always related to job. You will get bored soon.

Well, anytime someone is unemployed either to their choice, or being let go from somewhere after a few months many of them are really wanting to work again, and some are lucky enough to find a New job somewhere right away depending on their qualifications and what they are looking for. I know many times I would LOVE to walk out on my job, and never come back. Especially with some of the Racism against whites there is, and some of the game playing. If we could afford it, I would have done so last Sunday and never considered coming back. But for now, I need this job in order to survive until something better comes along.

Yes, you are right my friend. Sometimes we should make a choice for your personal welfare. The job I have before was good but the salary was less so I decided to quit and find another job. Besides, I want to go home also to see my family. Working abroad wasn't easy as like working within your country. The days already gone, I need to find another job to sustain my family

that is true, when we are at work, there are a lot of times that we do not feel like going to work... and we feel we would feel better if there is no work at all. ha ha well of course there is always that feeling of whatever we do not have that is what we tend to wish for. but i have never really wished not to have a work.. but only wished to have vacation from work. i know the calue of work for me and that i need my work for daily needs and wants... i am quite sure i won't be doing good if i do not have a work because honestly the work provides for everything i need for material needs...

I make it sure I won't work for a longer period of years. Just only to save money for another business. I managing my own business but because the funds not enough, I need to go work again. I almost finish my BS Entrepreneurship course so I think I need to use my knowledge being a young entrepreneur.

Hi julyteen: That's a good feeling and I hope you courage and the positive feelings remain with you as you start working again. It's sometimes difficult and we lose hope but if we have the attitude things could be better. Working is an important activity in human's lives indeed. ALVARO

We need to work hard to sustain our family, regardless how hard it is, still we don't have a choice except to accept it. We have daily needs and we cannot buy it if we don't have work.

I do not have a job right now but I have my online business. But when I had a job before, the feeling of being stressed out sometimes is normal. I think you just need to balance work and leisure so that you can be able to stay in a job for a long time.

It happened on my previous job was very frustrating. Can you imagine working without days off. Unless you cry to your Boss that you can't work anymore. Although all overtime was compensated and our salary always advance 3 days before month end but we need to relax and enjoy outside our job site.

You are right, now I miss my old office atmosphere. When I got to the office every day I feel so tired, but now when I do my little home based work I missed the office :D But you should choose the working conditions that can sustain your economy, not what makes you comfort

Yes you are right. You won't consider the enjoyment you will have in your work place but the salary matters most now. Due to economic situation we have nowadays.

A job is very important to have , taking care of what we need and want . To be able to make that kind of money in the internet will require to invest some money which we are not willing to do . Having a job can help you start a online business the you can quite if its successful . Stress is a part of working , even online I sometime get stress but whenever that happen I can just go outside and chat my face off.

That's reality julyteen. Most of us feel that way. I am presently employed but I cannot say that I am really happy with my work considering that the salary is high. One thing that make me feel sad is the fact that I have to stay away from my family. But on the other hand, if I would be staying with my family without work, we would end up starving. So I have to go on. My family will always be my strength. Whenever I feel like giving up, I will just think of them and do some readings and other activities. MyLot also helped me to cope up with my situation. I hope you can find a job soon. Goodluck!

That's the only way to fight stress and homesick when working abroad. I find a job already for Qatar, just waiting my working visa. I finished already all documents needed. Tentative date, my working visa will arrive end of this month.

Hi julyteen, I am currently unemployed since last month because my husband told me to rest for awhile and focus to other things. I love my previous job because it was very challenging, fun and less stressful. Now that i am staying home and doing my best to do my duty as a full time wife, i enjoy it and i found it very relaxing.

Based on your explanation, it's worth to missed your working place. How I wish I can have similar work place soon so I cannot feel more homesick.
