I hate my job!
- Thread starter Walter White
- Start date
Same here I used to love my job but lately we have had a new director that feels like changing everything just for the sake of change without really thinking through all the consequences. Gets real old after a while to show up to work everyday thinking that you will be told to implement some new off the wall idea that makes as much sense as putting firefish in with a large grouper.
I had a guy come in and do the exact same thing. Changed the way things had been running for years, proven methods both here and overseas. Refused to listen to anyone or take our advice. came in and cut our man power in half, doubled our work load by holding those responsible accountable for their tasks and now that everything is all FUBAR'd up, he is trying to leave to another unit. pitiful!!!
My whole thing is im just sick and tired of being on call all the time. Every time my phone rings a little piece of my soul dies. Its seems like very other Friday right before the weekend Im asked to be on call or work to dig some client out of a hole they dug for themselves or worse yet someone within my company has dug, yet they get to have their weekend and I get to fix their mess. I spend on avg 12 hrs a day at a key board and my carpal tunnel has gotten so bad its very very painful for me. If I didn't have so much pain my job wouldn't suck so much.
End rant and back to work! lol

I hate my job!
I love my job, I started with a new company and went for being a Forman at my previous job to Vice President of Operations at my new job, more responsibility but I do the hiring and I've been in the field about 15 years and know a lot of people in the field and have brought in some guys I can trust and make my job a lot easier!!! The owner started the company not having any experience in the field so I pretty much run everything that has to do with work,bidding,hiring and scheduling and major purchases and love the freedom.

I used to love my job. It was a challenge. It gave me a sense of accomplishment when I would troubleshoot a complex aircraft system and fix it so it could fly you all on vacations or business trips, etc. I lost that job when Frontier filed bankruptcy. Now I work for Boeing as a preflight and delivery inspector. I HATE this job. I review tons of paperwork and go check that the mechanics build and / or fix problems correctly. I never get to fix planes anymore and the company treats people like crap. Everything is a witch hunt. The pay is about what I made in the airlines, but life in the Seattle area is at least twice what it is in Denver Metro. It rains here constantly and I seriously HATE hipsters. I miss Colorado and my friends. The only reason I don't come back is that in the past 4 years, my knees have degenerated to the point that I now have 2 fake knees, so crawling around on the ground is not an option anymore. I can't really change careers since I have been at this since going to Colorado Aero Tech in 1988. I am currently watching for QA jobs in the Denver area that pay what I need to live comfortably, so I may be back someday!
A word of advice to any of you younger folk out there, life is too short to be stuck doing a job you don't like. If you are only into your career a few years and it isn't what you thought it would be, change directions! Do not spend your life doing a job you hate. When you get old and look back, it will be looking back with regrets!
