Today’s agenda: 

  • The best busser
  • Cringe corporate speak: heads up
  • Hot topic: what to do if you hate your job
  • FYI, hating your job affects every aspect of your life
  • What makes someone hate their job? Identifying what really makes someone dislike their job vs. what is tolerable or enjoyable at work can help solve the issue
  • How to make the most of jobs we hate so they don't affect our lives outside the organization
  • Setting boundaries can make a huge difference
  • Communicating with leaders, management and colleagues if possible (once again, ChatGPT can be a helpful tool!)
  • Don't let a bad job convince you that you're bad at your job
  • Questions/Comments
