5 - Feel indifferent
Like GBC, I’m indifferent to it. It’s a job to get a check. Has its ups/downs. I work in manufacturing (shop rat) and punch in at a time clock. Im hoping someday to maybe switch “careers” and be a greeter at Wal-Mart.

4I might be closer to a 3 now that I think about it. If you'd have asked me a year or so ago, I probably would have said 9 or 10. My how things change in a year...
I'm constantly looking at jobs similar to mine. When I find the right one, I'm out.0 -
5 - Feel indifferentConsumables Inventory Planner for a medical company.There have been plenty of times when I’ve loved it, and it can be a rewarding role. But there have also been enough times when I’ve wanted to kick the door down and get the hell out of there. These days I’m mostly indifferent to it.
I used to work long hours dealing with vendors in the US, Europe, and China but it was taking a toll, especially during the lockdown years. It took me long enough to realise that my health was more important. Working from home has its bonuses but now I make sure to switch off on time and relax.“Do not postpone happiness”

7PM for a Miscellaneous Metals Company. I have a lot of freedom where I work which makes up for the lack of bonuses. Pay is the only reason why my current job doesn't rank higher.0

7I would say I’m satisfied with my job given the amount of work I do.

I'm not much of a bourbon drinker. I like it but I also know that as a single barrel it varies from batch to batch.
Most bottles purchased by the "bourbon bros" are sitting on shelves collecting dust and never opened.0
