Do you like work?

[Malcolm Everett]

Jesus, sunday night, another week of work at the opticians lies ahead, I can't be arsed. Work is rubbish, whoever invented it needs a slap, its just such a bore. The thing about work is that it eats into your free time, I would want £10 an hour just to give up my free time before I even do any work. There needs to be a finer balance between time off and time at work, I don't like having to work for 5 days and then only get 2 days off. Life shouldn't be about work.
Do you like work or are you somewhat bored it?

I used to hate it when i worked in IT but i retrained now it's ok...

I always say if you hate it just stop doing it i was making ok money doing by old job i make less now but im way happier so it's all good.

Hated it when I worked in UK, now in NL, love it to a point.  But definitely not looking forward to the next 3 weeks where I am doing 3 people's work - thanks to vacations!  But on the plus side the overtime will be good :-)

That is impressive stuff taking a pay cut to do something you were happier doing. Unfortunately I am on minimum wage and Dolland and Aitchison.

Isn't work what peasants do?

[bolt-on]

People used to say to me

Hard work never killed anybody
But it can make you a funny shape.
They were reet.

Isn't work what peasants do?

In a way, yes.

But what myself and your good self do, is also classed as work, I suppose, as we draw an income from it.

So, if that's work: I love it!

My jobs ace.

I do about 8 hours a week, although sometimes I have to visit some proper shitholes.

Burnley tomorrow.

After a good many years working at a hotel doing food service, bar service etc at weekends and working til stupid o'clock every time, I am now finally in a standard Mon-Fri 9-5 processing job. It will probably get boring after a while but for now I'm loving it just having a regular wage coming in and not having to rely on student loans or work my entire social life to get a bit of money.

While it is a bit of an unbalance only having two days a week free, there's nothing more boring than sitting round the house during the week watching Sky Sports News, GoCompare adverts and Cash in the Attic. I actually would rather work.

Are you joking?
I would love to spend my mornings with Lucy & Martin at the auctions or alternatively, a trip to some lovely countryside houses with Jules!

I have to say I do like work... I get mind numbingly bored if I'm off with nothing to do. I really don't understand how people can aim to live off social doing nowt but watching Richard and Judy... I'd even go as far to say even if I won a maxed out Euromillions I'd continue working. There is no doubt I'd quit my current job, no chance I'd want to do anything were you end up doing the hours I sometimes do, or the stress that it can bring. However, I'd do something, probably taking a leaf out of Ronnie Barkers book and entering retirement to a little antique shop without a care of it making money.

Some people live to work. I work to live.

People like you shouldn't be allowed to win it.

[Chris Rabz]

I'd probably still work actually. Not straight away, I'd have a few years travelling to see the world and stuff. But eventually I'd run out of things to do and end up doing something on a regular basis. I work to live but lets face it there's bugger all to do between 9-5 Mon-Fri because the majority of people you'd spend the time with... are in work! And while I love going for all-day drinking sessions I couldn't be one of these saddos who just sits in a local all day every day, regardless of whos in or if they are even with anyone.

[DaveBWFC]

If you had millions and millions of pounds how could you ever get bored? The things you could do are endless.

[Chris Rabz]

I'd hope that was true but something tells me there must come a time when you just think "I've pretty much done it all". Who knows, there might not be. I'd love to have the chance to find out.

[Natasha Whittam]

I don't mind work, but I've been doing the same thing since I left university surrounded by the same people. Time for a change.

As soon as my Dad officially retires I'm going to sell the business and start up my own gym.

Carphone Warehouse?

[traf]

I thought we'd ascertained long ago that the delightful Ms Whittam does not work in a poxy phone shop.

According to some, my work involves crocodiles and kids, in an ideal world that would be the perfect match.
