What is your reason for working?

Wow! I am here in the Middle East, far away from my loveones. I found a work here. I wanted to land on a job just to have money to supply my needs and my family. So when they gave me an offer, i grabbed it and this job gave me what i wanted - money. After almost two years, i feel unhappy now, im tired with my daily routine and wanted to have a break. I want to feel happy again. To be with my loveones to be reunited. I want to see GIRLS!!! Hahaha...

For many years I worked to earn money to bring up the kids etc but now I ma retired I still work as a maid for a local lady one day a week. She does not pay me she just makes sure I do the work properly and I love doing it.

the main objective for working is primarily having your stomach full and have the money to live a life, unless you are born with golden spoon in your mouth.

When I was single I work because I want to be able to buy stuffs for myself. When I got married, I needed to support my family that is why I am working. I want to be able to provide for my family. I am ok with my job except that I want to be able to spend more time with my boys since I am the mother, though nowadays there are a lot of working moms and they say that spending quality time with the kids is better than the quantity. Sometimes, it really saddens me when I get to miss recitals or presentations because of the demands of my work. Maybe with a little more freedom with time, I would be content with my job.

The main reason for me is because of the money. Both my husband and I work in order to pay our mortgage, pay our bills, and put food on the table. Unfortunately, nothing in life is free. I am fortunate that I do quite enjoy my job. I now have a great boss, whom I have been working with for over 2 years. The company where I work are pretty good to the staff. The money is not great, but I do enjoy a certain amount of job-satisfaction. So most of my "work-related" boxes have been ticked.
