Some people love their job and what they do for work. While others hate it or just look to it as a means to make ends meet. I don't mind my job. I work part time and it allows me the financial means to be able to work less for a higher pay. It's not though a job that I love doing.
I hope to be able to go to college and get a degree in a career where I can help people. Helping others is something I enjoy doing and so it would be great to have a career doing what I love.

Yeah I understand what you mean. I guess though we have to remember that we would rather have a boring job than one that practically kills us because it's such hard work. I'm hoping to find a full time job and I'm sure though that it will be a boring job as well but I appreciate the extra money.

After my college, when I started working in the society, I had a lot of hopes. I wished to be a professional. As a result, I would be famous and earn a lot of money. But, even though you loved your job, it came out that that would be totally different. The points were that the background and your fortune would affect the result. You may face to the people communication problem. People may not like your character or you may not fit into the surroundings. Therefore, in order to enjoy your job, you may equip you well with different types of skills, e.g. people skills, management skills, fortune skills, .....etc.

Yeah I understand what you mean. It is important to have those types of skills. It does make us feel better about what we are doing in our life when we are able to fulfill our job better. It is vital to be able to communicate with others and our co workers well. This can reduce the amount of stress and anxiety we feel in our chosen field.

I do love my job a lot. I do admit my job is sort of complicated which..we are the one who handle the credit card application for some countries. My team and I responsible for the development till the support. It's totally headache but it's truly a satisfaction for me as I know we are working for people around the world!

I'm glad to hear that you enjoy your job a lot. That is something to be very happy about. That would be complicated. It is good though that you know what you are doing and are happy to get it done. Keep up the good work. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate it.

There are very few jobs that I didn't mind having. I liked working at a cheese packaging plant, but then it closed down many years ago. Another one I didn't mind doing was housekeeping at one of the motels in my hometown.
There are jobs that I have had that I absolutely did not like. I have worked in factories and as a cashier at a retail store. I've had my share of those kinds of jobs and won't be doing that anymore.
I'm going to college to learn what I want to do for my next occupation and that is audio recording.

I'm glad to hear that you are able to go to college and pursue the occupation you want. I hope that in time I will be able to go to college as well and take some classes. It can be hard deciding what career to choose since there are so many different directions to go in. But the saying is that if we do what we love then we will never have to work a day in our life. So I'm trying to think of all the things I love and head in that direction.

Hi dominique!
I have both an offline job and an online job and I can say that I enjoy both of these jobs that I have. Different experience awaits me every time. Challenging yet rewarding.
Have nice day!

I'm glad to hear that you enjoy both of your jobs. It is a great thing to be able to have work that you enjoy. It makes it seem as if we are getting paid for having fun or doing some type of hobby. I hope that work continues to go well for you. Take care.

I have a undergraduate certificate which is diploma certificate. I really hate when people wanted to get degree which took 5 years or even 6 7 years to complete which i hated it the most. High school have finished and we still need go into another school by the name college? i have frustrated and confused. Is getting degree is so important we should waste those years. Many thing happen those period of time but certainly, It will be gone if you stay at college and study!! If college graduate really that good but only 10% of population have it , the other 90% were all sad?

I hope that you are happy with your diploma certificate and that you have been able to find good work with. I agree with you that there is a lot of time involved when people go to college for a long time. And you are right we can't get that time back. So we have to choose carefully what we are going to pursue.

Since I am an oler person and retired, I don't have a job or a career. I don't consider the money I make online, a job, as I enjoy making money, even though it isn't all that much. I have fun doing things online, especially here in mylot. I am also on a fixed income as I am a landlord. I hope someday, to make more moeny that I am now, but with all the scams out there, one has to be careful. I just enjoy what I do, and I will continue to do so. Take care, and have a great day.
