Career Questions and Answers
What are some tips to make your job suck less?
Asked by TheAllKnowingFizz
Tryin' to get real tips from real people.
Don't ask "what job!" I'm looking for general suggestions:
But if you're interested--think general office/desk job, big building, not too many people to 'hang out' with, and a lot of time must basically be 'accounted for'. :P
Thanks! :D I'm interested in hearing what YOU do.

Concentrate on the PAYCHECK! LOL... Really look at the good points. Do you get a degree of flexibility? How are the benefits? Are there any perks, like parties or FREE FOOD? :-) Are you learning things that you can apply in your future?

Work towards something else. If you have long term goals you can focus on that to get through the days. For me the thing that keeps me going is the prospect of getting a window office overlooking Lake Michigan. Oh, and the $275K that goes with it.

FRAME OF MIND. TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE BENIFICIAL ASPECTS OF YOUR JOB FIRST. FOR SOME IT HELPS TO HAVE A PLAN. FOR ME, ON MY BORING OFFICE/DESK JOB, I HAD A PLAN TO MOVE UP, AND ALSO SAVE MONEY FOR A DIRT BIKE. ONCE I HAD THAT IN MY HEAD, IT MADE THE TIME GO BY EASIER. I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT IT AS MUCH, I JUST DID IT, AND GOT THROUGH IT, UNTIL I REACHED MY GOAL. . I DID'N'T MOVE UP, BUT I GOT A SWEET BIKE THAT MADE THE HARD WORK WORTH IT.

Well try to look on the brighter side of the picture. U know like why would you even consider taking up the job in the first place. Just focus on what you want and you target on life. If you can't really coup up with it, then just leave the damn place and get another job.

I have the kind of job that allows for some variety and movement within the organization. Some of the jobs are not all that great. I might even describe them with the words you use. My philosophy has always been that it doesn't make as much difference what the job is, as who I'm working with. I can have a good time at almost anything if I'm working with the right people. But it's also my nature to try to find 'something' that I like about the job and then try to do it as best I can. Maybe better than anyone else. Putting out quality gives me a personal reward. I have also learned through they years to not rely on upper level commendations or compliments for your job happiness, but rely on yourself - knowing that you're doing a good job, providing a good service to others, and going home at night knowing that you accomplished something good.
