Dear all,
Please answer the above-posted question honestly. If you are not working, then are you sick of whatever you are doing presently? Somehow, I am getting sick of what I am doing. I am burning out. Are you? Maybe it's due to the weather and a lot of other external factors. Today, I don't feel like working.

Hi,
Well... I actually don't work when I don't feel like working. There's a popular saying, "If you are not going to do a job well... dump it!"
But maybe it's not a good idea for everyone because somewhere inside you need to be a little internally motivated; otherwise, you are just procrastinating, which I guess happens to everyone sometime or the other. The best way, "I think," is to realize that you "work to live" not "live to work" and also try to work in an area which appeals to you personally - something you would do even if you had a billion dollars and had no need to work for money.
But yeah - to answer your question - I'm sick of my day job, but that's because I am edging to be on my own but am not finding the support :) Everyone in my family wants me to stick to my job. 😂
Warm regards,

Hi Scarecrow,
I am totally sick of the job I am in. When I was interviewed for the position, a very rosy picture was portrayed. However, it did not take me much time to understand that it was just a picture.
In reality, I am in a sick job. My manager does not know the meaning of the word delegation. I think that in reality he is a very insecure person who believes that empowering his subordinates will put him in danger in the organization.
Seriously, I wish and hope I get a break soon.

I am not sick of my job but tired of those people around who can't do their job right, so one ends up having to be a "team player" - it's not so bad if people realize it, but I guess at times one eventually gets fed up with their job. I guess that is life.

I'm sick of my job today, but tomorrow could be a different story. I work full-time but think I could get away with working part-time; there's very little work for me. Another reason why I'm sick of my job is the people I have to work with - my boss is ex-military and very "old school," and there's one guy who has very poor communication skills - very taxing! Sorry, I had to vent. :)

Dear All,
The idea behind taking a day off is not to avoid work, but rather to take a break when you feel saturated and seek innovative and creative activities to enhance your work experience. It's about finding ways to make your work more engaging, where you can learn and utilize your time effectively in your career's right direction.
Though I am feeling the need for the same... 🙄

Dear Mr. Crow,
Have you heard that old maxim "Nothing is Constant except Change"? That's the same rule that applies to most humans. After a certain span of time, most of us get bored with what we are doing, including me. I am no exception. I always love to work on project-based assignments, different projects that should last for 1-1.5 years. After that, I should transition to new projects with new challenges to face, something new to learn, something new to do. Unfortunately, I am not currently involved in that kind of work, nor do I see myself doing that in the next 2-3 years.
I hope I can find a job that aligns more with my preferences. Back to the routine job for now.
Regards
