8 true reasons why you hate work
Work And Study / / December 25, 2019
Hatred of the work is enhanced with time, because the root cause of stress, we do not notice, and all sorts of little things just add fuel to the fire.
Remember, what you expect from the work and career, to understand that does not suit today. Then determine how to correct the situation. And to make it easier, we have prepared a list of eight true causes of hatred for the recipes and improvements.
Reason 1. I'm bored
The real reason: no one notices your efforts.
symptoms: you are constantly looking for something to do other than work (follow the tape in social networks, read news).
Decision: work and receive feedback.
Boredom occurs when you do nothing else to do, or do you do a chore, and it is already tired and it's time to change something. Here the output is clear: the courage to dare to change.
But sometimes the cause of boredom in the other: no matter what you do, no matter how hard, no one ever says, "Yes, you're cool!". Well, try to sense if no one noticed? In this case, you need to talk with the boss (or employees), not to torment herself with thoughts of self-worthlessness.
The leaders often do not have time to just talk with each employee. And even more do not have time to think about each and guess that you are bored and ready for a change, you do not have enough recognition. "Once a person is silent, he all is well" - so they argue. Your task - to tell about themselves, their achievements and plans.
If you charge a serious job, and will not allow the award (or even praise), do not despair. Go to the parent and ask, what is it and what you need to get noticed and commended.
Now, if instead of the chief decision will say that you have become arrogant, then you can hate the work (and look new).
Reason 2. Too long working hours
The real reason: you are overwhelmed, but you can not give up the new duties.
symptoms: you come first, leave last, you have developed a reflex - hidden away when the phone rings.
Decision: suggest how to improve the organization of work, prioritize tasks.
Some hard to say "no" when they are added responsibilities. Someone is afraid of layoffs, someone is afraid to show weak, and someone just shy. Employer advantageous when an employee works for two. Only for the employee it turns unfavorable.
Perhaps no one just does not know how much you pull yourself.
Since you are so good that you can work for half the department, then you already know how to improve and organize everything. Make a plan and offer it.
Sustain plan a list of tasks that you have to perform, and the time it takes to do these tasks, to make it clear: in 40 hours they do not shove. Highlight the critical tasks and those that do not make no one but you. And offer or reject the rest, or to distribute them between other employees or to hire another employee.
Reason 3. hate colleagues
The real reason: it's not the people, and accepted norms.
symptoms: you do not accept, you are a victim persecution or the constant bickering in the workplace.
Decision: If the work so it is accepted, it is certainly not the best job in the world.
If your company's standards of conduct contrary to your education or you can not follow them because of temperament, it is hardly worth breaking ourselves for office. For example, the company decided to maintain competition between employees, and you are not aggressive enough to withstand the race and just wasting energy. And finally begin to hate a colleague who you walked.
If you change jobs as long as it does not, try to reduce irritation. Dine on an hour earlier or later, colleagues, try to sit at a different table, work with headphones, if you can. And think about how to get out of the situation. Make a plan for the next six months or a year. If you can move forward in a career in this company, continue in the same spirit. No - look for another job.
Before commit desperate acts, remember that the work is still work, but not friends. It is better to focus on the business and often meet friends outside the office.
Reason 4. Small salary
The real reason: you are depressed and frustrated.
symptoms: look at the payroll and grumble.
Decision: You do not always have to resign to allow more pay. Sometimes you have to knock out a fair payment to the current location.
Money simplifies life, though not bring happiness. So if your joy and job satisfaction depend only on the numbers, you have something to lose. We have a higher level of need - to be realized, to show the potential to do something to be proud of. If you are at work it's all there, you'll love affair, even getting an average salary in the industry.
The important point. This only applies to those cases where you really get as much give in the labor market for similar work, and if you do have to pay for anything.
If you have got a cushy job of work, that it was just silly to expect from her huge salaries and creative tasks.
And it is strange to think that you will be paying more than other employees, just because you want to.
Salary is not the only way to motivate employees is not the only plus of work. There is always something else, at least the joy of a job well done task.
So check out the job market, check whether it is true or you underestimate you are missing non-financial incentives. If the latter - I think what you need and how to implement the work. Do not be afraid, the desire to do a better job - that's fine.
Reason 5. I'm at work in a trap
The real reason: you are bored, no interesting problems, but leave work do not want to.
symptoms: you would have to cancel the Monday and Friday you expect as the holiday.
Decision: find interesting activities outside of work.
Routine draws with terrible force. Especially if the work itself is routine. Since we spend at work at 8:00, boredom and dullness seep into other areas of life. It seems that absolutely no strength for anything.
To get started, try to return the interest in the work. read the special literature. Take part in the conference profile. Volunteered to travel to exchange experiences. Remember why all decided to work here and what they wanted to achieve.
Think of when you last expanded responsibilities and took up a job that seemed unreal complex. Maybe it's time to shake things up?
If this does not help, try to find inspiration outside of the workplace. Train go to the gym or jogging, to learn foreign languages, cross stitching or breed snails. Hobbies help regain strength and zest for life.
Reason 6. Head of hate
The real reason: Head does not realize how much you work, and does not appreciate your efforts.
symptoms: you cringes when you hear the voice of the chief or see incoming letter from him.
Decision: try to convey to the authorities that aggression interferes with your work, and you are a valuable specialist.
Do not argue with the fact that some managers prefer to yell or threaten dismissal than to motivate employees. Typically, these bosses are confident that subordinates can do nothing, and that they are not going anywhere. And then there are the aggressive leaders who do not notice that they have raised voice. Hate and the other is normal. Especially if you do not like conflicts.
Sometimes aggressive behavior - this is a common hooliganism, and it stops when the aggressor meets resistance.
Options few, but worth a try. If you are not able to be at work because of the nature of the authorities, it has nothing to lose really. Prepare a small report about what you do and what are the benefits of the company, about as in step 2. And tell me that screams and threats do not help to work better - only worse.
By the reaction of the chief of you will know which category your man who does not understand that yelling, or a person who loves poorat. In the first case, professional communication actually establish, in the second - hardly. If talking does not work, it's time to find a new place, or become the boss.
Reason 7. I chose the wrong profession
The real reason: dreams do not come true, so you stopped dreaming at all.
symptoms: permanent dissatisfaction and the feeling that the work - hard labor, when you do not see the advantages, which gives your work.
Decision: find a new dream.
Maybe you chose where to study, just for show. Maybe you made parents. So many years have passed, you are weaned, received a diploma and spent time on the job, to realize that you hate your job. Whatever it was, the dream did not come true, and without a dream you do not want to set goals and do anything at all.
Not everyone can take and quit the job, for which several years studied, which brings a good income, for the sake of a new dream. But it is not necessary to change life radically.
Remember, dreamed about as a child who would like to become. Move in this direction in his spare time.
Wanted to be a dancer? Dance. Wanted to be a rock star? Buy a guitar and play. Wanted to get into space? Teach astronomy, collect model rockets.
No matter how difficult, try to move in small steps to a dream, something you get. At the very least, you'll get pleasure from their dose studies.
Reason 8. I ran into the ceiling
The real reason: your career control someone else.
symptoms: you can not move forward at work and do not see the possibility to change jobs.
Decision: think about where and who would you like to work, get to know people who are already working there, find out what you need to do to get there.
You five years sat in the same room at the same table, it has not changed and will not change. Perhaps you work in a small company, where there is no growth prospects, and the search for a new job has given nothing. Therefore, you are working, just days before the holiday, and do not plan anything. Do not worry, you're not alone. What can you do in this situation?
- Talk. Once again we recall that the heads do not read minds, and does not know that you want more. Tell me about it.
- Suggest new. Once you feel ready to do something new, think out this activity within the work. Offer ideas management, implement them.
- Look at what departments have vacancies in your organization. Maybe you are interested in related work.
- Get additional training or take a refresher course.
- Look for a job in another city if your are no suitable vacancies.
In any case you can not wait and think that things will change by itself. This just does not happen, because of their work and career answer Only you.
