It’s Monday morning, which means you’re either thanking God that you’re kicking off another week at a job you love or sending your millionth prayer for a benefactor.

It’s Monday morning, which means you’re either thanking God that you’re kicking off another week at a job you love or sending your millionth prayer for a benefactor.

If you’re fortunate enough to still be gainfully employed of course be grateful; however, don’t let anyone strip you of your right to complain. Complaining is an American past time – like tax evasion and reality TV.

If any of your jobs made the list I’d love to hear from you.

Is your career choice as stressful as reported?

And if your position didn’t place on the poll, do you demand a recount or are you all smiles at work?

I recently saw someone post a picture of their Xanax pill in hand during the work day. While there's nothing wrong with battling anxiety, I certainly wouldn't share that with the word via Twitpic. Share your frustrations here. It's safer.
