Perfect Job and Happiness

Many mainstream advertising events change the way we think about a “perfect job.” To that effect, many people are left to believe that a perfect job is one that is associated with excessive salaries. Many people may claim that a well-paid job is the solely perfect job but have we ever thought for a second that while seeking a perfect job we discover happiness too. In life, efforts are supposed to bring the joy. What happens if we find a well-paid job, however we are not happy in our workplaces? Do we still name that a perfect job? Do we still call a well-paid job that offers employees no opportunity to learn and strengthen their goals a perfect one? In my opinion, as much as people work to earn money, talking about “a perfect job,” one should look at the issue from different angles instead of basing our argument on the money only. A perfect job goes further beyond money.

A perfect job is one that provides comfort and peace of mind. If you have a well-paid job, you can view that as a perfect job; however, a perfect job involves various impeccable attributes. In my perspective, a perfect job is when you sit in your workplace or office and establish your own rules and schedule. This creates flexibility and independence. For instance, one can employ a respectable secretary, and he would make your tasks much more relaxed and comfortable. Nowadays techniques and practices run all. Therefore, it is essential to have high technological know-how at work that will make work even easier. With the inventions of computers and office machines, you can make your job perfect by ensuring that you embrace the technologies to provide efficiency at workplace.

A perfect job is one that does not affect health, nurtures growth and development, and creates work-life balance. Currently, it is ordinary to work eight hours each day. Nonetheless, some individuals try to labor longer to grow their salary. To that effect, the idea of working for more hour to increase salary has adverse consequences on the health and can even make people spend less time with their families. We cannot call this perfect job even if there are high compensation benefits. For a “perfect job” it is essential to have an open schedule that allows for family time and any other domestic task at home. A perfect job would also allow for an employee to learn, grow, progress and eventually contribute to the organization. Furthermore, a perfect job allows for teamwork and excellent communication between colleagues within an organization.

I recently spent time with my friend who got employed by a particular company recently. The company pays its employees well; however, on occasion, my friend and other colleagues spend more than ten hours working. They do not have time for their families and always feel fatigued at work. At first, my friend saw this as a perfect job for him because of the salaries, but now he wants to resign.

People struggle to find a perfect job by focusing on the salary compensations. I just never regarded a well-paid job as a perfect job. A perfect job is one that brings happiness through team working with colleagues, taking initiatives, excellent communication between colleagues and availing opportunity to learn new ideas, grow and progress. Therefore, one must look at a combination of different aspects that make up an excellent job to be regarded as a “perfect one.”
