The main goals in any business, owners and investors;

1) Provide a product and/or a service that is needed to live and if you can convince people to think that a wanted item into a necessity then that company has a good chance to stay in business,

2) Maximize net profit,

3) Minimize pay-roll,

4) Replace higher paid employees with lower paid,

5) Outsource if possible without sacrificing quality,

6) Prevent people from retiring,

and
7) Offer the least benefits and perks unless it produces higher net revenue

Educate yourself with a degree that has a future and might not be outsourced.

I want a job to represent who I am, not just what I do. With this in mind, follow the steps to know if a job is right for you with a stop light analogy.

60 to 65% of the job should be green light things that you really enjoy doing, and with people you really enjoy being with.

20 to 25% of the job should be yellow light things that you really don't enjoy, but you understand that they are part of the job, and because of this, you do them to the best of your ability, and with a good attitude.

Preferably, you should not stick with a job with more than 10% of the red light things that you hate, or with people that you cannot stand being around. You may get depressed, offend your co-workers, or dump on the people at home or elsewhere to make up for the lousy job.

See if you can fashion your answer with some of these facts written betweeen the lines.

What 'I' consider most important:
Getting up in the morning being excited about going to a job where I enjoy doing something that challenges me - for a company that values me.

But you might feel it's 'a steady income' (not advisable to say this), or good hours to keep a work life balance, or an outlet for your creativity etc etc - this really is a question that YOU have to find the answer to within yourself.

What I consider most important in a job is that if I love it, it becomes my career. Most important attributes for any employee to me is exhibiting patience and helpfulness with and for others, strong organizational skills, and unquestionable work ethic.

When it's time to go home my reaction is, " What? Already?" not " Thank God."
It would mean that I enjoy my job.
