How to make myself like my job ah?

Honeybunz SG

Last last job.... got yelling boss
Last job.... got LCB colleague
This job... seems quite ok. But dunno why I am not happy these days.

I guess the problem lies with me. And I want to overcome that. I want to learn to love my job cuz I know I am very lucky in this job... boss trusts me... subordinates work very hard etc etc. Most importantly, the pay is quite alright... higher than the last lousy two jobs.

But how come I am not happy? Any advise?

Because everything is going your way. When you have everything coming your way, you long for that something that doesn't. Laughing

You are just bored. And what you do does not go with your direction in life.

Hey, but you need the money. Tough luck.

Honeybunz SG

If there is any one time you are so totally satisfied with your life, its a good time to die. Laughing

You're not alone.

However, if you would like to spice up your life, do something different, except quitting your job. Wink

You Roman Catholic rite...?

Consider doing your best in the job for God and pleasing Him.

If you are not, well consider other factors: You dun work purely for da sake of work. There may be other things: $$$, frens, things to look forward to. Something to motivate you to work NOT because of some fizzing moments BUT something WORTH you going to work and face the conditions you mentioned above.

Perhaps you are not getting any sense of achievement or fulfilment in this job. Maybe you do not feel as if you are progressing or learning something new anout yourself or other things. Or this job does not give you any sense of meaning or purpose.

I think you should try to reflect your feelings and problems to your boss. If your boss is a good one then he'll consider and try to do something about it. If not then it's time to think of job-hopping again.
