I deal directly with the politicians almost every day....well every day they are here.

Wow.. I fit into a few of their statistics there.

1. I find my job boring
2. The many expenses that come out of my gross pay are cutting into my take-home.
3. My job is stable. I've been in this position for 5 years now.
4. My commute sucks (~30 miles each way)

I believe the stability and decent amount of pay for the work expected of me is what keeps me there, despite the unsatisfying elements.
At this moment, if I left my current job, I'm not confident that my skill set could get me into another job with equal or similar pay and benefits.

Jeez... I need to go back to school

Don't know. Haven't even worked a day at the job I have when I get home.
I know I'm taking a pay cut from what I was doing, but it's the price of getting your foot in the door. Hope it pays off in the long run.

My job sucks. Not because of the low pay, lack of anything interesting to do, but because of the cunt I have to work for. She made a half livable job miserable. Women should not be supervisors.

I have had ONE woman that was a decent supervisor. The rest have been psychos. I would make a crappy boss. I would much rather work for men, they don't play games and if they hit on you, you can file a complaint.

Yeah they should just spread eagle, cook and clean.

I don't really dig my career feild, but I like being in the Air Force. And really, my job is awesome I would just rather be back on the flightline fixing jets. However, while that job was more enjoyable, I'm half crippled from only five years of it, plus I can actually have a family life in the desk job, so even if it's not as fulfilling I'll keep doing what I do now until retirement.

I'm surprised it's as high as 45%

Guess it's all the .gov employees. Don't deal with them much, but the only people i've ever known who were satisfied with their jobs were the ones who owned their own companies.

I'm a gov employee. I've been told that once I get out of all the training, this job is the next best thing to being self-employed. Basically get to set your own hours, within reason, and handle work the way you feel is appropriate. Some things still need approval, but as long as you're doing your job, it's suppose to be pretty good.
