ADA #8 - Make work work for you

ADA #8 - Make work work for you

If you don't enjoy your job but don't feel you have a choice about giving up for something else, don't fall into the trap of wasting your time. If you have to stay in your job, work hard and try to find a niche within it that suits you.

eg: you can volunteer to organize the company pot luck lunch or volunteer to start an in house news letter.

Not everyone is born with a silver spoon and can't leave a job anytime they want. There is all those commitments, bills etc and thus, we have to continue on with our jobs. If you can't throw in the letter, do it! You'll feel much better and more confident of yourself (exactly what happened to me a year ago).

But if you can't, just relax and find ways to help yourself out of the rut (I had to stay on for 1 whole year before I finally quit). So what can you do? Find different ways of doing things differently, to give you the variety. Have different drinks at tea time, rearrange your workspace every week, wear different styles every week or simply, change the wall paper on your PC.
