anyone actually like their job?

I do, I work a petty little 3 hour shift serving food at a
nursing home. It's so damn easy.

I don't make much, but then again I'm 17 and carless so it's
all spending money.

3 hours a day in a supermarket, i get about 2.70¤ / hour

not the best job, but its not too heavy and you dont need to
think about what yer doing... + theres always jummy food to
steal

sometimes it pisses me off tho.. when some demented granny
drops a can of beans and the floor is messed up again...
they always drop stuff...

I work with a granny...I cant stand her. She never knocks on
my door,has a comment about everything and is extremely
sneaky.

not to cycle on the sidewalk (when its 7.45 am and theres
noone else there) etc... pisses me off

Hate my job. Hopefully it will lead to something worthwhile
in the future, but for now, what was once a pretty cool job
with a great boss has become a pathetic caricature of itself
under a new boss.

I can't imagine enjoying ANY job, unless it's like
professional bed-tester or mega porn star. Or video game
tester. Other than that, no, I hate my make believe job.

It's a ''job'' for a reason, not a ''joy''.

job are always crap, even if you don't mind it, or even
enjoy it, the simple fact is that they are buying you out of
your time, and you HAVE to be there doing it regardless,
which can screw up the whole feel of a day, instead of
lazing about playing games, you're planning how muhc time
you need ot get ready, and how much sleep you'll need that
night, transport,.. it's all a crock

yup.

I work at my schools synth labs. I check people into synth
stations... help them if they have problems, and check out
gear to them.

Its not a demanding job. When Im not doing the above^, I can
just sit with my laptop and headphones and work on tracks.

Oh, and not to mention, I have full access to all of the
gear in the synth department

:-D

I like my job. Its really interesting. I am a trainee
technician engineer at a large company that develops
automatic test systems for radar, aircraft, mobile phones,
pretty much anything.

The company makes things like spectral analysers, signal
generators,power meters, oscilloscopes, large logic testers(
i mean LARGE).

There is in-house software programming and hardware design
research and manufacture,etc etc. Since I love electronics,
my job is bearable.
Pay is crap though.

right now i'm getting paid to do exactly what i would be
doing if i had asked for the day off.

except, i'm working on somebody else's webpage... but, i'm
learning new things, on a nice computer, using dope
software, on a T1 connection. so i'm not complaining much.

I like my job. Graphic Design is fun and doing it for
Zildjian Cymbals is even greater fun, seeing as how I'm a
drummer.

But in the end, if I didn't have a job I'd probably be a
much happier person.

i like my job; i work at a psychiatric clinic, at three
diff. departments, but now mostly at one specific... the
boss at this place is a former dj, he's got like 10,000
records... and he digs aphex!

Pffff, fuck no, car park attendant = ugh. It's easy but
boring as bollocks, and you get shitloads of abuse even when
you're being nice to people. But it may improve soon, the
white-supremacist cunt i used to work with got the sack last
week :D :D :D

I work in a supermarket which is ironic but was convenient
for a while but hopefully I'll be accepted for this Xmas
sorting job at the Royal Mail and in the new year face an
uncertain future :/

shit man! best job ever!

i work as a secretary. i make $10usd an hour to type and
answer phones. it's alright, at least i get off at
4pm...and it's not really hard at all. plus, when
everyone's at lunch i write out songs on sheets of legal
paper. i have drawers of potential music in my desk.

all i know is it's WAY better than blockbuster, because now
i actually can afford to buy skunk.
