Do you hate your job? I used to be at jobs I hated but I have to say now I really love mine. Even so, I was able to make some lifelong friendships at jobs even when the conditions were really awful.
Just for fun, I was thinking about a couple jobs I had early on in my life, and my very first job was cleaning an operating room. Can you believe it? I did it in high school and it was good for the purpose: some extra money and making new friends. I'm not sure I'd want to do it again.
That's the point behind making friends at a job you don't like. Sometimes it may take you a while to find something else, and when you do, hopefully you'll have friends you kept. In the meantime, a focus on making friends will help you to look at your job with a different perspective.
When I look back now on the jobs I didn't like, what I remember most are the friends I made at them. The bad times seem to fade away. If you're struggling with a job you don't like, here are some tips for making friends.
