[karen77sg 0]

Hey all,

Feel curious suddenly....how long hv u all been in your current job?

Me in my current job for more than 3 1/2 years....feeling quite bored and

sianz in current job scope liao...dunno y will hv tis feeling in every job

once it hits 3 years....mabbe very familiar in job scope liao and kinda feel sianz

cos no challenges and new things to learn...Gotta feeling of coming to work and

knock off every day...work for the sake of working...

I dunno whether I am considered a job hopper....1st job - 1 1/2 years, 2nd job - 4 years

and tis is my 3rd job....attempting to lok for another job after CNY....bt dunno will adapt to

the new environment or get back the same pay or not....

Do u all hv the same worries too?

I have been in my current job ie job-less since March. I do take up certain adhoc projects. So much more freedom now, the budget given is unlimited. I can idle, work round the clock or leave the country at the slightest sign of stress.

so far there are periods when i feel that going to work is a drag

and am tempted to call in sick EVERYDAY

but the phase will pass, esp when i think of going for interview, going through the get-to-know-new-colleagues-and-dunno-got-weirdo-or-not phase i sianz liao

thank you thank you

[compassvale 0]

true, i think most of us do not have the fortune to find something that we LOVE doing...but rather, it's more like we do not HATE/DETEST what we are doing that we jus work the days/months/years....hehe

i think most of us would only LOVE not to work...hehe

[applefreak 1]

I will be celebrating my 8th year anniversary in the company come October. Used to really love love what I'm doing (but not the company lah)... but sometimes when you work too long in a company, people just tend to take you for granted !!

I wanted to leave but dun want to go through the application/interview phase. Just waiting for people to head hunt me lah

In my job for 3 years 9 mths liao...

Really dragging myself to work every single day...

Trying really hard to hold out till Dec, get the 13th mth liao den leave...

But then again, i'm sure loads of people will be thinking of the same thing too...

Hai...

Should i just make a move now???

[applefreak 1]

for me my job is something that pays for the things i love

like my furry babies' food, my travel, my new home

without it i'll not be what i am today

colleagues come and go, whether they backstab you or become good friends with you

it's part and parcel of working

agreed.... think i am hoping for the idealistic scenario... have a great working envt and colleagues at the same time yield great satisfaction in watever i do... of course must come with good renumeration package... !!

though ideally, i will wish for a career... (defn: do sth which yield great satisfaction), i am just holding to a job... (defn: work to get money to pay for all the necessities and wants... )
