No matter the role, no matter the responsibility, no matter the perks or compensation, a lot of us are completely unhappy at work. This is bad news because if we work a modest 40 hours a week and get an average of six hours of sleep per night, we spend about a third of our waking hours at work. Many of us spend more time with our colleagues than we do our families. Including the time we spend commuting, working evenings and weekends, answering emails, and preparing for projects and presentations, we spend more than half our waking hours preoccupied with our occupations. The bottom line is, we should be extremely happy with our jobs since we devote our lives to them.

For every reason an employee likes his occupation, there may be an equal and opposite reason behind his enmity. In fact, there might be more than one cause. When a worker stays out of a decision-making loop for a long time, he starts hating his job. An employee hates his occupation, when he finds his company's incapability to reward his strengths. Feelings of disengagement can be a major grief. I know it can be weighing for a person to walk five days a week through the doors of a place he can't stand. Still, you should not quit until you have not spotted a great opportunity for your career growth in another company.
