So is your job fun, boring? Does time go slow or move right along?

    Mine's pretty bipolar. Sometimes it's all fun and games and you're ahead of schedules, other times it can be a panicky mess. Now, the clock's ticking way too slow. Hence the slacking :smiley:

    Well can be half and half depending on the volume of work but generally boring which means slow

    I wouldn't say "fun", but interesting works. Time flies when I have sufficient work, drags when I don't.

    I have a pretty cushy job as well, so I am super lucky. I can easily workout on work time most weeks and have very little stress related to my job.

    Mine sucks. I took it for the money. It's stressful, but the money's good. I loved my old job, but they paid for shlt. Oh well.

    depends on the time of year. we have times when we're crazy busy and everyone is in a panic and times when there's not much going on except thumb twiddling.

    Depends - I work in development for a nonprofit. If we have a campaign running or I'm planning an event it's great. But on days like today I feel like I've been here 84 years.

    Boring working with all men and listening to AM station all day definitely does not help

    It's the right balance for me. Best job I've had.

    If you don't like what you do quit. No one is forcing you to go or stay so find something you love so its not like going to work. Everyone might not be lucky enough to find their dream job but you won't know unless you have the courage to try new things. You might have a job that you loved at first but after 10 years maybe your opinions or desires have changed. Quit and find a new adventure. Live within your means so a job wont tie you down based on salary alone.

    After that long rant, I love my job. I run a natural gas combined cycle power plant and I get to see and work with cool things everyday that most people will never get to see.

    Although I love what I do, unfortunately my office enviroment is very quiet and boring! It sucks.

    My job is fast paced, interesting and pays well. Unfortunately, I'm not doing anything close to what I'm good at and what I want to do with my life.

    I’m in sales. It can be stressful, but I worked outside before this for 18 years, so no complaints

    I love my job and the people I work with even more... we laugh... we fight... we prank one another. It's a great place to be everyday!

    Mostly fun. Some days my kiddos are better than others, and the rough days can be completely exhausting.

    My job is fun in that I get to make things for other people, buuuuuut.. it's extremely isolating since I work for/by myself and rarely see sunlight.
