Are you starting to feel the heat in your job?

Thermometer When you have an 'I Hate My Job day'

(Even if you're retired, you sometimes have those days)

Try this out:

On your way home from work, stop at your pharmacy and go to the thermometer section and purchase a rectal thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson

Be very sure you get this brand. When you get home, lock your doors, draw the curtains and disconnect the phone so you will not be disturbed.

Change into very comfortable clothing and sit in your favorite chair. Open the package and remove the thermometer. Now, carefully place it on a table or a surface so that it will not become chipped or broken.


Now the fun part begins
.

Take out the literature from the box and read it carefully. You will notice that in small print there is a statement:


'Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson &Johnson is personally tested. '
and then sanitized


Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times,'I am so glad I do not work in the thermometer quality control department at Johnson & Johnson.'


HAVE A NICE DAY; AND REMEMBER, THERE IS
ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE WITH A JOB THAT IS MORE OF A PAIN IN THE ASS THAN YOURS!

.........Remember, if you haven't got a smile on your face and laughter in your heart...Then maybe you should go and work for Johnson & Johnson!!!!!

One of the funniest posts I've read in a while, thank you!

Always good to gain some perspective.....things are never THAT bad when you start looking at others

What an excellent remedy for an “I hate my Job Day” Paul! I think that when people get caught up in their own personal pity party, they forget that things could always be worse. An earlier Career Hub article talked about gratitude and it estimated that you are better off than 90% of the world's population if you have an education, a car, the Internet and a few other things that most of us consider to be very basic. So this is also something that should make you rethink your position about your job and your place in society the next time you feel the urge to start complaining.
