  1. Think about payday, and what would happen if there was no check for you. Hope this helps. I'm at work now while my family is having fun this holiday weekend.


  2. Just remember that work sucks and everyone has to do it if it was fun they wouldnt pay you for it

  3. get a new job

  4. what i always do is

    think of soething i really excited to do that day or in the week and it always gets me up

  5. Look for a job u think u might like. U may not but if u find it u will enjoy work much more. I have retired and do miss going to work each day. Many years ago I worked very hard ,but on the week ends we would play tennis. It donned on most of us that we were working harder at having fun than working.

  6. um well think of it this way...u earn money. or just think of something you enjoy doing at work

  7. my problem was that time went by so slow! i always looked at my watch or cell or something. there isnt a clock in the place i work so i decided not to bring in my watch or anything. it helped a little. just find what really sucks about work and try to avoid it :]

  8. Focus on how great it will be when you are done! Look at it this way, you will have a better day at work if you focus less on the "work" part, and more on what opportunities lay in front of you. Perhaps you'll meet someone great at work today, or have a laugh with a co-worker. Perhaps you'll miss an opportunity for a raise or promotion if you don't go. Remember, the hardest thing is just getting there. Often times, once at work our mind is so occupied that we don't even focus on our hesitation.

  9. to paraphrase the old song;

    if you cant do the work you love, try to love the work you do.

    if you can try to get yourself interested, and develop an idea of professional pride in doing a good job, it will go sooo much faster than if you just feel miserable and are not trying.

  10. I dont know how old you are, im 21 i am just starting to feel comftable going to work, when i was a bit younger I felt exactley how your feeling about work. I dont think about it now as "oh just another day slaveing away" or "life is meaningless slaveing away". Think about interacting with people at work, get your work done but dont take it too seriousley! After all life is short you cant act serious all the time you are at work or thats a long time of your life acting too serious!!!!!!

    Think about it this way, if you where unemployed you really would not apprichiate free time as much as if you where employed.

    Alot of people say "think about the money" but i think too far out of the box to care about money that much, i just see money as important pieces of paper to help you live.

    Im the guy at work who trys to make work more enjoyable for everyone and breaks the "i am a slave" mentality but that can be dangerious but I like a little bit of danger, its fun!

    And yes i am fairly successfull In the trade i operate in and my manager is happy with the quality of my work and the energy i bring to the workplace.

  11. well, try to enjoy the work you are going to do. thats the best tip i  can give,

  12. Do what we all do.........think of the money hunny.

  13. The ideal situation is to do work that you love.  Until that can be arranged try to make yourself indispensable.  The work force is clogged up with people that are just going through the motions.  Get to work early, and do not take unneeded sick days.  Dress appropriately and leave any personal problems at home.  Learn all you can about your job.  Befor you know it you will be the one with the keys to the place.

  14. if u dont like ur job... and u dont want to go.. that means u shouldnt be working there... i used to want to cry everyday before going to work... i thought it was natural to feel this way because i hear a lot of pple saying they dont like to go to work... now i changed my job and its not like that because i enjoy it...

  15. tell yourself you can't wait to get there to see ________

    or to find out how  ________ turned out.

    or to make that money

    or to earn that thing you wanted.

    mostly just tell yourself you can't wait to be there.

  16. just think of all the people who cant work and have to rely on other people. Like the people who didnt finish high school and dont have that much qualifications. How much they have to suffer

  17. if you hate your job, you need to find something you do like,nothing is worse than having to do a job you dont like, can't you take an ipod with you and listen to music
