I love most things about my job and hate very little (power plant engineer). Love the schedule, problem solving, learning, future potential, coworkers, job itself and the opportunities. Hate the schedule, burns, coworkers, fiberglass and occasional danger.

I’m a lab rat, and probably the best part of the job is being left the fuck alone. I do my job and I do it well. No one fucks with me, micromanages me, follows me around, talks to me…it’s bliss. Yeah the job itself is rewarding (materials testing for aerospace), and my coworkers are pretty chill. But I’m a guy who likes his solitude, and I get plenty of it.

Hate? The hours. I do a 55-hour work week which is grueling as hell. Doesn’t leave a whole lot of time or energy to do fun things in my free time. But the OT is where the money’s at and I’m not quite ready to give that up yet.
