I'm actually taking up a new job in a couple days and I couldn't be more excited. This office is a prison.
@vl4d_l3nin: that's the kind of job I have, I cant wait to get a new one which ive been working on for a long time
Don't have one, but just got back from an interview.
best of luck.
Thanks.

Let us know how it went if you hear back from them. Good luck! =D
As for me I quite like my job as a fisiotherapist...just hate it when people purposefully lie to me about their habits and actions and **** up the diagnosis or the treatment.

Yeah, best of luck to you too... I just got back from an interview couple of days ago myself, and they sent me to drug test physical exam too right after the interviewed so.
Did I love my old job?.. NO
I like mine. It's not the final spot where I want to spend the rest of my life, but its giant stepping stone and it pays well.
I love my job as art director, it's very satisfactory to create successful online products. And winning pitches by big companies is simply awesome. Although it can be quite stressful, having to be creative all the time (sometimes the creativity simply won't come) and working from deadline to deadline is rough and demanding.
I kind of feel in the middle. I hate that I'm still in the same business I've been in for years though. Really wish I could go back in time and make better choices though. For the sake of the poll I voted as "hate it".

Yeah, for example...a few months back I got a new client with a huge swelling on her face. My first question was "Do you normally wear makeup?" she said no, I asked her if she was sure, she assured me she NEVER wears makeup so I did all the followup questions about allergies/food/environment/changes in lifestyle etc etc....couldn't find anything that could have caused it...maybe it was an isolated incident. I did the treatment, she was fine by the end of it. 2 weeks later she comes back with a really swollen face again, I asked again about the makeup, same answer, so I did the treatment and she was ok again. I conferred with my coworkers, my teachers, etc etc....we couldn't find anything wrong with her so I sent her to the dermatologist, who also found nothing.
At this point I was about to send her to get some serious testing done, we were considering some sort of head trauma....the next day (this was about 2 months after her first appointment) she called me and told me "I found out what the problem was! Makeup, can you believe it??" so I obviously asked why she had lied to me. She says that since she's been wearing the same makeup for 15 years that couldn't possibly be the cause, and if she had told me she wore makeup she was afraid I would blame it instead of searching for the right cause. Turns out she mistakenly bought the wrong brand because the packages were the same colour and she was allergic to the new brand.
Now tell me how I'm supposed to deal with clients like this...
Love and hate it. Love that it is overnight so I have no customers to bother me with stupid ass questions but hate how much orders I have to pull on my own. I work alone and I sometimes have to pull more than 800 items off the shelves for customers. Sometimes I get help and sometimes I don't. It could get really stressful at times. I have a bunch of awesome coworkers who make it easier to pull through though.
I am not working right now to focus on school, but some jobs(at mall) I loved but others hated(restaurants). I will tell you what I think when I graduate and get a job.
I gotta say I enjoy my job quite a bit. We have a lot of fun at work, and I get to work with a lot of great people. It's definitely one of the better jobs I've ever had. Plus the pay is not to bad.
Unemployed at the moment, I'm in the middle of re locating so until i find a new job by my new home i'm not working.
So it's a love/hate thing :p
Still new at it. So don't know how I feel about it.
Good luck with your new job gamerno6666.
Thanks. Atleast a certain someone is not bugging me anymore for not having a job. :)
I just started a new position. I'm enjoying it so far. I'm not doing the same thing all day and there is a wide variety of tasks that eventually have to get done that make me think and keep things interesting. That's more love it than hate it, although I wouldn't say I love it.
Right now, I despise where I work. I work for a technical consulting company and I'm on contract. I would describe the site I'm working at as lethargic and slow. Bureaucratic red tape hampers development and gets in the way of design choices that would make the product better. Communication is very poor, too. A lot of times, there's nothing to do. I've made a path finding algorithm just because I had nothing better to do at the time. The coffee here is terrible and I needed something to keep me awake.
I would like to get back on R&D, as I really enjoyed that. There was always something to do and I felt like I was making a difference. It didn't pay as much, but damn did I have fun. The boss is debating on putting me on sales to market the product that I worked on. Not sure if I'll like it or not, but at least I would get out of where I currently am.
I love some aspects and I hate some aspects. I'm a programmer for a large financial services company. I hate meetings, I hate project managers that push crazy timelines, and I hate the red tape/hoops we have to jump through to get things done. However, the base nature of my job is enjoyable. I enjoy the problem solving aspect of what I do. I enjoy the creativity that writing code affords. I also enjoy the paycheck!
Do you have to either love/hate it? I would say I like it well enough, but to say love it's a pretty strong emotion.
Same here. It's a good job. Not perfect but not too bad.
Love it, absolutely. I've been here almost 10 years and the shit I get to work with is awesome. The comp is also good enough to cover supporting my wife and two kids and the skillsets I've developed would carry me into a new position with any IT company should anything happen to my current employer. This week I've been working until 2am nearly every night (not the norm) but even when things get hectic like this I still love what I do. I get to travel all over the US and I've even been outside the country twice for work (could do more, but I decline to spend more time with the family). I get to design systems for Fortune 500 and 100 companies and I get to work with software and hardware before it becomes generally available to the public. The number of companies I've had the opportunity to do work at is amazing and I even spent several years of that working at a major online gaming provider and done some work for game development studios.
Also, I get 2k a year of "goodie budget" to spend on my own computer. :)
