Job Satisfaction

Are you happy with your job? I guess I am very lucky. I decided at a very young age, maybe 9 or 10, that radio is what I wanted to do. Oh yah, I thought about being a police officer and astronaut too, but once I realized I was afraid of heights, that was out.. But once I heard a DJ who called himself “Big Ange” on WINR (where I ended up getting my first radio job soooo many years later) I knew that’s what I wanted to do. It’s been a pleasure and honor to be able to do this all these years.

 However a new survey by the job site CV Library reveals that 40% of professionals are unhappy with their current job. With 97% of these workers looking for a new gig.

 Other findings:

– 42% of people are bored by their job

– 26% of people say their job makes them sad

– 69% of people have had a job that has made them miserable

And what industries have the lowest job satisfaction? Marketing was #1 with 57.1%, Legal work was #2 with 54.5%, The hospitality field came in at #3 at 53.3%, Accounting and IT tied at #4 with 50% …

Sometimes it not the profession, but where you end up getting the job that can sour your experience. Hopefully you are enjoying what you do, each and every day.
