Why are so many people unhappy in their jobs? There are two primary reasons. First,some people are convinced that earning a living is wasting time? that they could spend enjoying themselves or uncovering their talents. If this is the case with your, recall you last long vacation. Was it two weeks of complete enjoyment? More likely it was a week and a half of fun in the sun,with another half of a week of bore. I can&39;t wait to get back to work. If you didn&39;t feel such vacation blues,then imagine taking a leave of absence. You could use it to work on a novel, enroll in classes or just sit around watching TV. At the end of three months, in all likelihood,yourself-esteem would be at an all-time low. While all work and no play is not good, all playand no work is disastrous. Wc need to feel we are accomplishing something. We also need some form. of order in our lives. The second and perhaps more prevalent reason for people not to like their work is that they feel trapped. Once you have been at a company for five years and have a spouse,a mortgage and a child, you often feel you have very little choice about jummping ship if things aren’t turning out as you’d planned. A steady paycheck can be the biggest manacle (束缚)of all. People resent having to do something because they have no other choices. If you find yourself resenting your job because you cant afford to quit, it mnay be timeco prepare what one career counselor humorously calls a cyanide(氰化物) capsule. He re-calls spy movies in/which the secret agent has. such a capsule hidden somewhere on His body. If he&39;s captured and tortured unbearably, he has an option. And having an option gives him the strength to hold on a little longer in tbe hope that the situation/ may change. Rather than cyanide. your option takes the form. of an up-to-date resume. You might also take a weekly glance through the help-wanted section, and make some visits to industry functions where low-key net-working can take place. You are not giving up on your current job. Rather , you are providing yourself with an option. If things get unbearable atwork, you could jump ship. Being in this position can do wonders for your attiude. It allows you to enjoy your work since, in reality, you are there only because you want to be. At the core of adopting a positive attitude to your workplace is above all assuming responsibility for your own situation. Most people feel controlled by their environment,but they really aren&39;t.
