    I am a mental health/substance dependence counselor. I work with kids and adults (2 part time jobs). I do love it. I want to go to grad school so I can get my independent license and get more $, better hours. Once I do that I will be where I want in life :)

    Scanning technician. It pays well for what it is, but I hate it. xD It's just monotonous and gives me way too much time to think and self-loath.

    do i love it....? hmmmmm
    Most days I LIKE it... ish.
    If I were working around animals all day instead of people then I'd LOVE it. :wink:

    I am also going to school for Health Records Administrator (still in health field but not working with patients or shift work) and I HOPE to love it when I'm done in a year.

    I work with animals all day as an ER Veterinary Technician and most days I'm lucky if I like my job. We don't get paid enough, work too hard for what we get paid, animals try to kill us almost every day because they're so terrified, and people accuse us (as a business and an industry) that all we care about is money, when really the industry doesn't make great money.

    Hi all,
    It seems like more than half the people who've replied like their jobs. That's fantastic - how did you all do it? Did you determinedly chase your dreams? Or fall upon something really fun? Did you always know what you wanted to do?

    I wonder because it seems like most people I talk to in life either merely put up with their jobs or at best, find their jobs ok. I personally just get through the days. I'm in IT, and while it pays fairly well, I count down the hours till I get to go home. So after talking to various people about how much they like their jobs, I pretty much came to the conclusion that there was no point in changing careers - that 'ok' was as good as it got and I may as well suck it up. To see that perhaps that's not the case for everyone is refreshing.

    I'm a real estate appraiser and it's a great gig once you go through the arduous process to get there. I'm self-employed, sleep in every day, work out of my home, make over $100 an hour...but I only work 15 to 20 hours a week (includes quite a bit of driving) and take a lot of weeks off so I'm not getting rich. I consider myself to be semi-retired.

    I'm a full time stay at home mom. The pay sucks, I'm under appreciated and there's very few breaks. But I love my job. Once I get my degree though I will be back in the workforce.
