When i say hate i mean DETEST.
You feel physically sick at the thought of going in??
Im on my way in a minute (late shift), and i can safely say that i have exhausted all possible excuses to get out of going.

I HATE IT!!

Enjoy mine I'm afraid and have a damn good laugh in the process but the stress when things are not going to plan can range from bad to suicidel.

I got like that at my old job. So I left. Sooooo much better at my new place.

Ask yourself if you want to carry on feeling like that until you retire, or do you want to take a chance somewhere else?

Life's too short to feel like that about something you have a choice over...

Leave and get a new one.

Does anybody else hate... Their job???
Yes, I did, and it almost gave me a breakdown.
If you hate it so much:

a) see your doctor for anti-depressants, and

b) change it b4 it's too late.

I think that job satisfaction is really very important.

I loved my job and it was not that important that my pay was a lot lower than civilians with similar qualifications. The variety and the challenges associated with it made up for all that.

I hated my job, so I left.

At the moment I'm now living the wonderful life of not having any money to live, and claiming benefits

A position I hoped I'd never be in.

A word of advice. If you hate your job, get out. But make sure you have somewhere else to go first.

It is very easy to achieve, if you put your mind to it.

In those kind of situations, you take anything that comes your way. Doesn't matter if it's crap, it's a temporary solution, and much better than killing yourself over a job that makes you feel sick to attend.
