If you dislike your job, it eats away at your soul little by little each day. It makes your life a living hell. I suggest you find a way to earn a living by doing what you love to do. I'd rather make little to no money and do something I love (as long as it provides for myself and my family) than to make a lot of money doing something I hate. Right now I'm making less money than many others who are in a similar position in my part of the country, but I don't mind because I make a decent living anyway, and the job is very casual and fun.

Going to work is a pleasure and I don't mind it when I have to put in extra hours...without pay. (Salary position)
Wise words well put Radar. :applause:

june, and others, would be smart to pay attention.

another view is that if you start getting paid for what you love you will quickly lose your joy in that thing you did for free.
