Do You Hate Your Job? Here’s What to Do

 
Once while browsing through a career forum I came across a poll asking visitors whether they liked  or hated their jobs.

Amazingly a very high percentage of people stated that they hated their jobs but could do nothing because of those jobs brought them.

That got me thinking. I know there are many people out here reading this who don’t like what they are presently doing for a living. Still the truth remains that

‘There is hardly any job that will give you 100% satisfaction’

You can’t like all aspects of your work. That said, if you wish to find yourself in a job you hate here are steps to take wisely make things easier for yourself.

·         What Things Do You Hate in Your Job?
Do some soul searching. What is it you really dislike in your current job. Most people hate their jobs for any or combination of the following reasons; Insufficient pay, sexual harassment, work condition, work environment etc. Find out what it is for you. When you know your problem it is half solved. If you have pin pointed the reason for hating your job you can take the next step.

·         Take Steps to Minimize Them
·         If your problem is with your job is identified take steps to wisely reduce or eliminate such challenges. If for instance your main issue is insufficient pay, devise s atrateyg to gain more recognition and promotion which usually comes with higher pay. Do what you have to do to make sure your problem is removed. But what if you can’t  minimize your problem at work?

·         Look for New and better jobs While Retaining Your Present Position: Except your problem is sexual harassment don’t hand in your resignation yet. Quietly start seeking and applying for better jobs and keep your current job until you get a concrete job offer elsewhere.

Then you can tender your resignation, kick the dust off you’re your soles. But before leaving don’t fail to politely tell your employers what you think is wrong in the organization.
