Can job give a person real satisfaction?

Question

Nobody is satisfied with his/her job. Can any kind of job give a person real satisfaction in life? Are you satisfied with your job? If yes, how?

Answer 1

If you consider your job as something you have to do to make money (i.e., earn a living), then job satisfaction (as defined by social scientists) would most likely not be achieved. However, if you regard your job as something you really enjoy doing then job satisfaction could be effected. Any of these reasons can make you enjoy your job and would ultimately lead to job satisfaction:

1. the job is challenging and it affords you to keep on learning
2. the job is related to your academic training
3. the job has room for advancement both in the pay scale & personal development
4. the job is tailor-made for the career path you have outlined for yourself
5. etc., etc., etc.

Can any kind of job give a person real satisfaction in life? YES. A person can define his own satisfaction level and so if he's cool with whatever he's doing and is resigned to doing the same stuff for the rest of working life, then we can say that he has reached his satisfaction level.
