I don't really like my current job as I am still having difficulties memorizing the products our company offers. Actually, I am just waiting for the probationary period to end and I will be more that glad to look for another job. However, I can say that I am learning a lot from this job so I am still thankful that I am given the chance to work with this financial institution. How about you, do you think you'll reach the retirement age in your present job?

not anymore.
the people i work with are antiquated and are so defensive and afraid that they might lose their current positions.
it is time to move on to better things

I also don't like to work with people who are just thinking of themselves, I mean, we are working in the same company and we should be working together towards a common goal and not just to impress the "big bosses" for his or her own good. I want to work with people who are open to share their knowledge specially to those who are inexperience and working for the first time in a new environment or institution.
Thanks for the response. =)

Nope, sure don't! LOL But I'm suck there until she fires me or I can find something different. Which, considering I've put in dozens of applications and only heard back on one (a form letter saying they'd filled the position but thank you for applying...at least it was something anyway)...that doesn't look like it's going to happen anytime soon.

You're so funny, hehe.. a letter saying that the position is filled and thanks for applying! Well, it's really difficult to find a job these days in any part of the world. But still, I'd like to have a job which I enjoy. I hate to have a job that only provides me a monthly income, I want a job that I enjoy doing so I won't feel like I am working at all and I don't have to drag myself to work.
Thank you for the response! Hope you(and I) will find the job we like the soonest possible time. =)

I like what I am doing now! I love working from home. But soon, I'm seeing myself in an office working again in internal audit. My husband and I are hoping to retire young so we can enjoy our retirements. All in God's hands, of course.
If you don't like your current job, you think how long will you be staying there?

Yeap! It's fun to earn at home scarface. But I have to admit, I also miss the paydays every once in a while. What online jobs are you in to? I write on Triond and I join social sites like MyLot.

if you are not happy with your job, don't force yourself to love it. the output will definitely reflects the intensity of your desire to work.

hi,
actually i really like my current job now,as a part of a telecommunication company,but the problem is i hate one of my co-worker because she is very sarcastic,and aside from that i hate to have a boss who never only have a minimum knowledge about the work we have.

I don't really like my current job. Right now I am a lecturer in a private college. This is not something that I'm looking for when I was kid. The reason why I took this job at this moment because I need paycheck to pay the bills, and this work give me more freedom and time to do my research. yeah I'm a full time student too, doing research in a university. I think I'll just stick to this job until I finish my study then get another job that I really like, and gain more experience.
However, I would like come back to this academic line when I'm done with all the stress and challenges I face outside. I like the freedom in being a lecturer :)

Well, you should be thankful that you have a job at the moment. There are so many unemployed nowadays and competition is really stiff. I have retired from my job of 20 years, it was my first job after I graduated from college. I have learned to love it because I was blessed to have an understanding superiors and friendly officemates, the office environment was fine and the pay was also at par with other companies. I was just sorry that I had to retire early because I have to look after my growing children.

Yes, I satisfy with my current job. I work in office using computer with internet connection facility. I can access internet in working hours. It's so fun. We are allowed to use internet in working hours as long as we don't have job to do. I spend my spare time in mylot. I enjoy my current job. Pressure and job target are occasionally.

I don't dream to be a Nurse but here I am now, what other choice do i have to take when i am already 40. I wish i can still have any other choice but right now, i think i will have to stick to who am I and will love the job. I hope my job will give me reward in return in the future:)

I think I wont reach my retirement age with the company I'm working with but I'm so happy working in here. I'm a nurse but I'm working in a real estate company. I bet I will end up working in a hospital.

I've been working with my current job for nearly 5 years now. I can't say that I don't like it but there are numerous times that I felt burned out with my job. I'm wishing to look for another work perhaps I might feel the same way. Anyway I'm still grateful to it and I guess I always have to give my best with my current job because of my income. Good luck with you finding the right career.
