i don't like my job.staying in office and receiving many telephone calls everyday.i like freedom,i like to go outside and play with my friend.but now i can only tolerate this boring job because i need to support myself and the job can give me enough money.in current society,money talks.maybe someone say money is not important,your interest is first,but i also don't know which job i like and suit me.i am looking for the meaning for my live.but hard to understand it.it makes me so confused.

Hey xx, I don't know what to say. Maybe you should try some few other different jobs at least what I know a young adult should do before landing on a permanent job. I know its sucks to be in a boring company doing repetitious work, I have been there before. First find out what you like doing, do you like to try sales job,if you like talking and meeting with people?

i don't like this job,the biggest reason is they need to talk with strangers and meeting everyday.i like silent job,no need to communicate with many persons.but in the other side,this is a good chance for me to change.

I also hate my job a the moment and I feel that it is getting more and more boring each day. I think that it is about time that I find something interesting to do and put my brain to good use as well. I also keep my present job because I need this money to be able to survive. However, it is hard these days to find a job that suits despite having qualifications and all.

I also took this job to gain working experience. I am however living in my country and wish that I could work overseas for a change. Yes we must find a way to get another job.

Well, I think interest is first only apply for those who don't need to worry about money. First, to live a life, we must have a job and bring home the bacon. And for lots of people, job means pressure and boring. Of course there are some people who enjoy doing their jobs very much, either because they like what they are doing or they think through their jobs, there value can be realized. Well, if you feel sad at your job, how about make some changes, for instance, to find a different job? Well, if you can only do such job, then first, try to master more knowledge and then you can have the ablility to make changes. I feel bored sometimes about my job too. But as you said, I have to keep the job, or else, I will die of hungry. Good luck to you!

If you are more of the outgoing person and needs to be moving around all the time, then the best job for you is on sales. Jobs that require going to different places is what suits you perfectly. These jobs could be sales agents or medical representatives.

Hi friend! If your job at the present is a good one, I mean aside from that it is a boring one, yet you have a good company, good boss and good office mates. Then I don't think it is a good option to give it up just for the reason that it is boring. You can do something when you feel bored so that you can be able to enjoy yourself also. Like participating in myLot or in any other earning site. The main fact that you get that job, it only means that you are the perfect person for that job. We should not complain but rather we should be thankful that we have a good job. Have a nice day! Just find a way to minimize the boredom. Have a nice day!

Hi. WHy don't you find your own freedom? Anyway,that's not the only job in this world. Like me, I graduated as an Accountancy student but after I graduated I don't want to work in a bank. But even if I didn't like working in that place, I still look for the job but none of them called me or worst even hired me. lol. Then I got the job that I have right now. I am an English teacher and as that I can do whatever I want while earning. I have my own time and decide what time to teach students online. :)

Hello, I understand your situation very much. I am at the same situation, I no longer like my present office job. But I still stick to it because of the bills that I have to pay. Maybe one day you will find the job that suits you and will make you happy. Maybe a job with field work will make you feel less bored. Do you like to research? I know researchers are often sent out of the office and do field work. You can meet interesting people and learn new things while on the field. Hope my suggestion helped. :)

Well be thankful coz you have your job. While you feel that way in your current post try to evaluate which things you good at when it comes to work. Then if you already know what field your most interested and you feel you going to be happy with it someday then try to hunt for a new job. But don't quite while you still searching for a new job. have a great day!

You are young, so at least you have time to explore and look for what you want to do in life. Keep your job as it is hard to find one these days. But open yourself up for other opportunities as much as you can while doing your job as well. You'll never know when or what oppportunities will come your way. As long as you keep being positive, it will probably come even in the least expected way.

They say that we should follow our passion. Do what makes you happy. I can relate to this discussion since I have been in a career that it wann't my choice but others choice. Good thing, I followed my passion, though, in a later part now. So there, we should follow what's in our hearts, there will be no regrets and that's for sure. Thanks

Hi friend, sad to hear, if you don't like your job then you can leave it and find a job which is based on your interest. I think you are interested in going outside, roaming jobs may apt to you, find a proper job in your favorite field and enjoy your life. Don't be confused

Try becoming a nurse like me. You will surely be excited and alert all.the time at work. It is very challenging.. And you will have no more time to retouch yourself... Especially here in the Phils that nurses are underpaid, al you could do is complain and feel despair.. Hahahaha.. But if.you really enjoy your job, go for it...you wil never feel boredom if you love what you are doing...
