Hey Pandas, What Do You Like About Your Job? (Closed)

I spend quite a bit of time on Bored Panda.

I got so used to working in customer service jobs where I would get yelled at, judged harshly and expected to choose my job over my family.

Now I work mostly from home for an accounting firm where people tell me that if I don't know something to ask, they'd be more than happy to show me how to do it. They praise me when I'm making progress...I mean like crazy praise me!

And I've never been in such a judgement free supportive company as I am here. My schedule is flexible so I can tend to family issues. I love my job!

I don’t live in fear of getting fired for any little thing. I know management has my back. I don’t spend the whole day getting screamed at. Having a state job is the best!

I like the fact that I can sleep in whenever I want, I like the very flexible hours, very little stress, no commute expenses, etc.

Oops; I forgot to mention that I retired in 1990!

That I get paid.

I just solve puzzles all day (software engineer).

I’m retired from a job I loved. I was at the same company for 24 years. I did many jobs and worked my way up. I felt appreciated and was paid well. I got to travel a lot (even internationally once.) I’d still be there if my health allowed.

I love math. I love talking about it. I love learning about it. But most importantly, I love teaching it. I love helping the students already excited about math learn more about what they are capable of. I love creating a safe space for the students who have grown to hate math and hopefully, at the very least, cure the anxiety they feel walking into a math classroom. I love rewarding effort along with success. I love altering how I teach to best fit the students that I currently have.

I’m a therapist and love seeing the “aha” moments with my patients. Watching people heal and grow - some of them after living through the stuff of nightmares - makes me grateful for and proud of each of them. Plus I get to make my own schedule and make sure to book a nap for myself every day (I keep a super fluffy blanket hidden within easy reach of my office couch) which is pretty nice!

I get to watch memes as part of my job

i love that i have a good mix of office work and being outside :)

I get to make people feel beautiful ❤️

Just a little bit closer to retirement

My manager let me do pretty much whatever I wanted as long as my piece of the product met the quality, cost, and schedule requirements.

I work at the library so I am able to read pretty much whenever I want!

I love that I can help people to get their works out there!

I don't have to take abuse from customers, and I can absolutely tell them to f*ck off. Otherwise, it is soul draining.

I love my fast pace job and my great teammates. Plus my boss is a pretty cool woman.

I work in retail for one of the UK’s largest supermarkets. I may now earn less than half of what I did 18 months ago, but I have no direct responsibility for anyone or anything; every afternoon off (part time) and work with like minded people who just want to come in, do their job then go home and get on with life. No one is trying to get one over someone else. The store discounts more than make up for the low wage and I have a lifestyle I always wanted. Every little helps!!

Every other day is different, I can be creative, I get feedback in minutes, I have to be flexible coming up with solutions very quick, I don't need to go to gym.
I'm a chef.
