Do you like going to your job everyday be it a nine to five? I have to say that work is not fun most times when we are working. But a wise man once told me that if you find a job that you like and enjoy to do you will never work a day and your life and I find that to be so very true. Have you ever notice when you are doing something at work or fo somebody that they consider a job, but it's not for you because you enjoy doing it, so imagine if your 9 to 5 was the same way, wouldn't that be great?

I studied my favorite major in college,I have been engaging my favorite work after graduate,many times,I enjoy the work I do. Gradually,I found other things distracted my work,the earning,the family,as well as the health.especialy the health,when work begin to erode health,believe me,only very few people willing to continue to do his work.I'm not the exception,though I won't change my profession,still,I want to banlance all of these. So,don't blame me for my straight,NOW,in my eyes,work is not all of my life.

Working is always fun if you enjoy it.But if you are stuck in a job which you don't like you are bound to be bored.I usually work to avoid stress also.If you have fun i your job then no matter what time is it you have an urge to go forward.I have to take break sometimes and come back again.If the work you are doing is satisfying then it never harms you as you really enjoy doing it.

Hi Anshu23, Thank you for your comment. I think that you said some very important things. Work is as fun as you make it in my opinion, I always go for the jobs that I enjoy doing, I feel strongly that if you enjoy your work you will never have to work a day in your life. Working is a hard job that we must all do but I tend to making the load lighter.!!!:)

My job used to be fun and i used to love going to work every day. Now things have gone down hill at my job I been there for 9 yrs and I'm looking for something different because I'm not happy with what I do anymore. But I'm still grateful for the hours I work every day and still have the evening to do whatever I want 2 and the money is ok not the greatest but it's something until something else better comes along. But I enjoy coming to mylot every day and making money while helping people out with advice and responding to discussions. If I could make a living just doing mylot I would but that's not possible so I just do this on the side to help me. But atleast it's something I love and I come here every day when I have free time to be with all of you.

It would be awesome if I enjoyed my job. I have a 9-5 and my position can be very stressful. I used to like it because I felt I was providing a useful service to my community and doing something important. I know my job well and that gives me confidence which also made me like my job. Now, I dont like it so much. I've become jaded and bored with doing the same thing everyday and not learning anything new. In my past, I had a job that I truly loved/enjoyed and it is true when you feel this way about your job then it isn't work. I hope that one day I can feel this way again about a job that I have.

I had a 9 to 5 job in las vegas for many years. I liked it, as I always knew what time Id be home each night for my son. here I own my own business and never know what time Ill be off. I just know it will be late. Take care there...

My job isn't very busy, sometimes it is very boring. I am considering to change it. I think that we should try to find a job which we have interest in it, so that we can work with energy.

I like the regular schedule for work. Since I want to be responsible for my family even if I have a job. A stable working time can make me handle these easily. I don't like overtime working. I need to go off work on time so that I still have some time for my family.

Nine to five jobs at a time is possible but sweat will come out from my body.If i find intersting jobs like earning by playing game or some thing that is of interest to me i would difinitely do that. Unfortunately i can handle more than 2jobs and that is also very hard for me.I hope you have multiple jobs which you have interest. Happy lottings
