One Team In Keynsham Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Without wishing to exclude the unemployed or young'uns from a discussion, and leaving aside the positives of a decent salary and/or perks, does anyone out there truly love their job? If so, why? What makes it special? Me, I am still looking for the gold at the end of the rainbow work-wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annanimo Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 No, the job is rubbish. Pay is rubbish, conditions aren't great...hey, I work for the NHS.Lots of uncertainties about the future of our service, i.e. it looks like large sections of our hospital are going to have to go to cut costs. Really fills you with confidence. We're not valued, work unsociable hours...Does have some advantages in that there are times you think "Yeah, made a great contribution today" which sometimes happens. And when patients are obviously grateful. But if I was to start again I would definitely choose some other line of employment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MaloneFM Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 No Ronnie one does not hand over to oneself in the 'biz'. One hands over to uncle Bruce Hockin and young Richard and if he's sober (rarely) sweaty Seymour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutland Red Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Love my job (although I still moan about it) in the RAF.Pros - Reasonable wage, free uniform, free medical and dental expenses, spent 3 years in Cyprus, free use of state of the art gyms and skiing expeditions.Cons - Being sent to hell holes worldwide.Still, I signed the dotted line and you do get a sense of pride.

Lita For Congo Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I only got a part time job to earn some money for the weekend, and i enjoy it to some degree, as I'm trained in 5 different places and 2 of them are awful but other 3 arent too bad, also got a few mates working with me so its a laugh sometimes. Could be better money, it goes up in December by about 90p so that will be handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
