Yes I am currently employed. My work is very much related to my profession. I love my work because it is not so stressful and not so demanding in terms of time, etc. But I don't love the surroundings and the I really don't hate the people around but most times I am just about to give up.
No it's not my dream job. I never had a dream job when I was a kid. I had a dream job when I was already in college. I had somewhat gotten or experienced that dream job for sometime. It was really a dream while it lasted.

After being employed for 10 years I would say I lost my vision what is an ideal or dream job. I really think they don't exist at all. Although my work is a bit lighter as compared to others out there that labor the whole 8 hours mine is not that loaded but then I would not say I am happy with my current job. I still seek a much better greener employer but unfortunately every time I try I still go back in my employer.

Hello Chiyosan. How are you ? Yes, I have a fuul-time job that I enjoy very much. I am very much a career-minded person, and give high priority to having a job that I like. I am very lucky this time to get this job, a perfect match to my ideals , I would say. How about yourself ?

hi chiyosan,
No it is not my dream job! I work as an employee of a bank and its weird because I hate math and I am doing computations and all. What I wanted is to become a fashion designer or interior designer. But I have to be practical and pursue a dream that will work for me but life is not end here. I will still have all my life to do what I wish to do.
Happy lotting!

Yes, I am and I don't like it at all because of the people, not because of the job. The people here are just like.....whatever. As I told you before this is one reason that could lead me to find another job even if I have adjusted things to make me adapted to it but it failed. When we do not like one job we can make it adjust it from hatred to love but when it comes to environment and the people, the one that should go is you when others will be the same and can't be change.So I will leave the job as soon as possible when my business online get stable. Really want to work on my own.That is my dream.

Yes, i have my full time job and i love it. It is not close to what my degree is but it uses one of what i am best at - making correspondences, memos and dealing with people.

Unfortunately, right now, I am not employed. I am still a university student, and it does seem a little difficult for me to get a job and study. At least, this is how I feel looking at my situation right now So, I can't really say whether or not I like my job, as I don't have one.

Yes, I am. I work as a technical assistant and I love my job. It's dynamic, interesting, my colleagues are also my friends and the salary is good. So I don't have a reason not to like it. Well, it's not the job I dreamed or planned, but I like it. Actually, I have a hobby that I would love to turn into a job someday and this is making subtitles. I've been doing it for fun in the past seven years and I really enjoy doing it. I simply find the text in English, then I make the translation and the timing at the same time, while watching the film. It's not an easy job, though, because I want the translation to be perfect and to make sense, so I spent a lot of time researching and background checking. Every translator who respects what they do must not just mechanically translate but make the film reasonable and satisfactory to watch.
