I stayed long in my current job now because I like my work. And I think they like my work too. I enjoy every thing I do around here. I am a teacher. I like preparing new exciting activities to the children I teach. I am in heaven whenever the students will say they do very well and they enjoy the activities prepared. I love it whenever they are all present. I love many things about teaching children. The accomplishment is so great even though the salary is not so good. What about you? Do you like your work/job? What do you like about it? How long have you been in your current job? Do you plan to stay longer? Have a great day!

I do like my job, its cleaning other people's houses. Its nice to leave the houses clean and tidy when I leave and one of the best things is I don't konw when they make the mess, but I always know it will be a mess when I go in. I have cleaned people's houses on and off for years, its a very good job as I can fit it in around the children and my own house. I just wish I was as good at cleaning my own house, I suppose it is because I can see when they mess it up just after I have cleaned etc.

Same here! I don't clean other peoples houses (well, other than my boss's every now and then), but I do clean for a living. You'd think with all the cleaning I do my house would be sparkling. Unfortunately with 2 boys (3 if you count my hubby) that isn't the case! Hmm, since you do clean for a living, care to clean my house?

Thank you so much. Wish I was nearer to you, then I could come and help you clean your house.... or I could train your husband to clean the house!

You must be a very organize and patient woman. So far noone helps me clean the house. There are only two people making a mess, my husband and I. But my husband makes the most. I'm pregnant right now and by the time I give birth I will need someone to come over an dhelp me around. Maybe I'll ask my mom. You too must a trustworthy person as you can go inside other people's house. Good to know. I think by the time my child is grown up, she'll be making a mess too.

I like work, I had been working in my father's shop since I was 16 or 17 years old, work or labor to me is sacred and as the bible says ( i'm Christian)" it's dedicated to the Lord" Now I own my own company, I always start the day with a prayer that" I would be a blessing to everyone I encounter today", yes all these years I also get tired sometimes and different attitudes of people i meet from day to day and I sort of grow hot headed but I just think and count my blessings and all negative thoughts go away, I think of people going into the shop as people who would give me money and provide for my family with God's blessings

Yes I like my job, but naturally there are days when I have a different opinion. I work in an office, but the day consists of very varied duties, which helps to keep the job interesting.

I work as a cashier at a grocery store. While I do like my work, sometimes not so much. It's not bad work, but it can get hectic. Sometimes customers aren't appreciative or understanding, and rather demanding. I suppose like any job, you have to have done it before to truly understand.

It's really hard to please people. Good thing you are very patient. Well, customers may have different reasons for being grumpy and demanding. Good thing you are a very nice person you can endure these patiently.

Yes, I love my job! i have been here for 8 months now and actually, I couldn't call it a job because I enjoy what Im doing and the people I work with are just so amazing to be with! The work doesn't cause that much stress and more often than not, we have lots of spare time to relax and chat with each other and even go on breaks more often.

well, im staying for quite not long with my work . at first i didn't find it enjoyable. although my work is worth sacrificing for but time is so demanding and things need to accomplished in every minute. that's my complain about my work but the rest of it were meant to be fine and can be handled. as years go by i have learned to adjust and adopt to the kind of work that i have. little by little i learned to love it though it is time demanding. Good luck to us !hehe

Hi lea! I can understand that there is nothing like teaching and it gives immense pleasure when your students learn something from you and appreciate your efforts. I am not into the teaching profession, however, I like my job and I feel satisfied in it. I feel that 'work is like worship' and I perform my duties with due diligence and sincerity.

"Do you like your work/job?" For the most part, yes. "What do you like about it?" I like that it's close to home, that I take care of animals, and I work independently (most of the time anyway). "How long have you been in your current job?" Almost 18 months. "Do you plan to stay longer?" Nope. I just got a new job, so I had to quit this one. Happy mylotting!

I am currently a stay at home mom. But when I used to be working, I really give my 101% in the job assigned to me. The first job I had was in a pharmacy which was owned by my brother in law. I worked for 10 years. I never had a day off. I was just not reporting for work on Christmas Day, New Year's day and Good Friday. Even if I was sick, I come to work. That is how show my appreciation for the job he has given me. I would have stayed longer if it weren't for some family issues.

Hi leateagee! I am a public servant and I can say that I love what I am doing. Being of help to other people is a great thing for me. I know that my job is not an easy one primarily because I can be assigned anywhere and the risk associated with it is high but then, thinking about the people that I was able to helped in my day to day work is already a great achievement on my part. Have a nice day!
