That's all right in the first weeks/months until you get used to it.
What is it that you do? Besides, you're in I-bloody-wate :p |

Did you just start this job? I remember having quite a bit of difficulty at first with the systems we used (so many numbers, yuck), but once I got the hang of it, it was.. tolerable. Though the perpetually hungover, pre-menopausal bitches of coworkers made it a horrible, negative place to work.
But generally, I don't mind going to work, it's that 8 hour wait to go home that is utter bull. :whip: |

Yes, I hate my job with a passion. Have for the two years I've been at it. Mostly I'm just too lazy to find a new one.

| Nope, like it very much actually. The amount of responsibility and freedom you have in academia is great. Probably I won't stay there after my PhD, though. |

No, I'm not in Iwate :( Haven't been since Aug 2010. Had this job since Sept 2010.
I work in London in the city for a tour operator, arranging holidays to Japan and Asia. It's the maths, and I'm so ing careless. Lost lots of money. I am not cut out for being sat behind a desk all day, I am more of a people person.
Really want to move back to Jap-land or somewhere else like Vanocuver / Aus / NZ.
Point being, I don't think I have long, so I'd rather jump before I'm pushed.
EDIT: Failed a phone interview for recruitment consultant in Tokyo - that's how desperate I am. |

I know what you mean, so am I... I'd probably have jumped out the window by now :p

I get to travel a LOT with my current job, so (I'm sorry to say that) my job is rather enjoyable. I guess I'm on of the fortunate few.
In all honesty, though, if you don't like your job, you need to formulate an exit plan. ASAP. There's nothing worse than spending 1/3 of your life in a role that you're not happy with. |
