Dear all, just curious, do you all dread working for others? Why do we work so hard for 8-5 sometimes Overtime. Are there times when you all just feel like don;t care about anything and quit and live like there is no tomorrow?

Yes, I work for $ too. Compare to my peers, my pay is considered low. My colleagues are easy going and my department does not have too much office politics. Work is tough. And I need be on standby during weekends too. But, what do you really want?
Working environment is a critical factor, for me, personally. Maybe a sense of belongings? But we should not become complacent. Must move on if you have the opportunity.
Just my 2cents worth.

at first it was for the experience
and the genuine excitement of meeting new people, seeing new places, doing new things
after a while i got bored with corporate life and then later a secretarial stint that lasted 4 years, i decided to stop wasting my days doing stuff that bore me to tears and delve into what i love.. m/u and fashion
then i realised that the constant quota hanging over your head just makes an M.A. a normal salesperson. luckily because i'm temping, i can still give a customer lots of my time because what i find rewarding is the happiness/contentment/excitement/oomph she gets when she finds an item that really works for her
however i have to say much as i enjoy temping, it's the money i'm working for. if i didn't need it to pay my bills etc, i'd rather stay at homeLast edited by loves; 15-02-2005, 03:49 PM.

work for money? yes
i also work cos i wanted social interaction
i live to work i guess
imagine staying at home, with nothing to look forward to, and no money to spend?
work to buy the things i want and i need i
but really i quite enjoy the job i am in now
i can research all day long, which is really my passion!

erm.. i'm actually hoping to learn something from my job during my hols? plus of course the money. who can forget the money that lets me shop.I'm lucky, or unlucky that i'm working with a large organisation.. lucky cos the pay's pretty good and its gonna look good on my resume next time but unlucky because i think i might not get as much responsibility as in a small firm. but i'm fortunate in that i have a boss who's really nice and who's given me quite a lot of opportunities.
