do you dread going to work?

[TNF]

I don't work; I conned the government into thinking I was crazy, so I receive government disability checks every month.

Yes (normal)

Unless you have full control over what you do and when you do it, I don't know how it's possible for any sane human being to enjoy being yelled at to perform an almost assuredly meaningless task for eight hours a day.

That explains a lot.

I find my job fulfilling, though I am not a hard worker by any definition. Bonus points for the access to good looking and creative women.

Have you considered switching your occupation?

I'm in the midst of a job search, and hopefully by summer there will be more spots open in my chosen field (education), which would be great because that would at least be a job in which I would have a much larger degree of autonomy than I do now as a wage-slave in a hamburger sweatshop.

For some reason I thought you had a union job. I wish you luck in your job search. What is your desired profession?

Unfortunately no. I am a union member (joined up when I did student teaching) and have worked one union job since (canvassing to raise the minimum wage) but at present, I am working as a hamburger flipper and have for the past five years. My degree is in high school education, specifically history, though I would like to do some union organizing before I settle down into something permanent, if I can ever find anything to that extent. I've been applying like mad for both union organizing and teaching jobs since January at least.

I'd say scab-buster!

Now that would be a job that I could definitely do.

I plan on moving to Illinois soon, so I've been exclusively applying for teaching jobs up there.

the one time i really miss opebo is in threads like these.

there are actually people that look forward to work?  wow.

In the same way that there were slaves content with their servitude, I suppose.

well, i wouldnt go that far.

tnf, you and i work in the same field, i think.  even in that field there are people who enjoy going to work...which i find mind boggling.  most of those people have completely chaotic home lives.

Oh, I know exactly the type you're talking about. They're usually the biggest suck-ups to management, too. I suppose work serves as an escape for those who have really terrible home-lives, even if the work in question is mind-numbingly bad and drains you of all dignity.
