How Do You Motivate Yourself to Go to Work at a Job You Dislike?

Put your focus on whatever good you can find about it. Do you get health insurance? Retirement? How about tuition reimbursement? Anything you can find, hang on to. All jobs have good and bad parts, so taking full advantage of what my job can give me (I take all training classes, etc) and the people I lke, has helped me get through it. Good luck!

Suggestion:

I hate my job. I am a nursing assistant at a nursing home. I basically change old people diapers and get beat up by them for 8 hours for $10.65 an hour. The only thing that motivates me is having to take care of my family.

I hate waitressing but I need money. That's the only reason why I'm nice to people.

Keep your mind on the mon$y and find yourself another job in the mean time that you actually like and then quit

Imagine the table without food, and a house without lights, heat, and water.
