I work probably 30% of my day, get to go abroad, visit clients, delegate the 30%, report to management and consequently look great and am seen as indispensible and i get paid loads - my last increase was 20K

i have a great job

I do very little, have flexible working hours, am respected by people for no apparent reason other than my professional status, and get paid very well for my tender years!!

Having said that I still think i have a crap job!!

Really enjoy my job - work hard but everyday is a great laugh - always at least a few laugh-out-loud moments! Firm is good to work for, good pay etc.

And its in IT - I must be the only one who has an IT job they dont despise!

my job is ok
my pay is ok
my work is ok

The location is the best part of my job, and probably the only thing that keeps me there

This is compared to what I have been used to in the past, with all of the above

I have a lovely job spreading the teaches of one of the greatest men this world has ever seen.

Pay is irrelevant to me. You cant put a price on that feeling you get inside everyday as you make a difference to someones life.

Love my job as a recruitment consultant, good days and bad, but the feeling I get when I find someone else a job more than makes up for the bad days

I changed six weeks ago, doubled my money by going contract, nice people, lovely setting and free three course meal every day (if you want it, fat **** here usually has a butty), just hope they extend the contract.

Only downside is that I cant bear to take a day off !

I only work six months a year and get paid pretty bloody well for it too. I have four weeks at a time at home and when at work, I don't work hard......well...occasionally, but it's not the norm'.

I actually like my job, so....yes I have a good job!

Although......was just given a promotion and it worked out at about 150 a Month........hardly fair compansation for the extra hassle and responsibilities for the new position.

Maybe my job isn't as good as it was last week??
