why do people look for a job and then complain about their jobs?

that is a very good question....I guess I would have to say cause some people are never satisfied with anything or just aren't happy unless they have something to complain about on a daily basis to make them happy...or that they wont be happy until people around them are miserable just like they are

most of the time the employee will contact u after they have reviewed ur resume/app if they don't call to sched an interview then it looks like ur not what they are looking for, which is no big deal unless u really wanted the job which at that point u would call them to set ur self apart from the crowd of indifferent people who have not called.\none thing I have learned is U HAVE TO ASK FOR THINGS as they won't be given to u\n\nNo one is right in this matter as whatever it takes to get thejob

because they are paid to do so and you should pay attention because they are doing it for you if you don't get a good job it is not their fault so it is your fault so they give you so much because they don't want you to get a bad job in the future

People who are in service jobs (ie: cashiers, waitresses, clerks and such) who do their jobs with a bad attitude. I'm not talking about the occasional bad day. I'm talking about attitude.

Whatever gives you gratification.  Money, Power, focus, status, involvement, coworkers, Boss, commute, nature of the job etc.  However, some people can't be pleased! They are complainers and complaning is what makes them happy. So if you have some of these make sure you give them more to complain about.  The more you give them the happier they are. They don't show it really but deep inside they are really happy.

If you are currently looking for a job, you know what it is like to feel stress. Balancing family, finances, schedules, and other issues make the hunt for a new position arduous. Part of being able to control the stress is knowing what to do. Part of handling the stress is being able to know what NOT to do, too. \n\n(That's the start of an article posted here:)

There are plenty of people that hate that model.  \n\nBut the people that do want 9-to-5 jobs often feel that way because they like the predictability that it brings. Once could argue, also, that there tends to be a little more job security in those 9-to-5 jobs as opposed to, say, a retail position where the hours may be flexible but the pay is (often; not always) low, benefits are few, and job security is at a minimum. (Of course, there are many exceptions to this.)\n\nIt's also possible that the many (many!) people who DON'T work 9-to-5 only *think* that they want 9-to-5 jobs.  I mean, the grass is always greener on the other side, right?

it is not who to blame. first you need to figure out what you are mad about. if you are mad that they are over populated then it is about sex. if it is the taking of the jobs. then it is jus that there are not lazy and will do anything for money. so you need to rethink your question

it can be chalked up to the general impatience of modern humans.  in a world where you can do everything online in the blink of an eye, no-one wants to wait for anything, anymore. \n\nthe hardest thing about my crappy jobs was not the work, itself, but the needlessly cruel attitude of the customers at large--treating me like crap just because i was on the clock.  as much as you try and smile and "yes, sir" and "ma'am", some peole just think that if you're working in a store, you're there for their amusement.\n\ntry being nice and patient with the employees, and you'll be suprised at the result you'll get.

Yep, I quit my last job.  I worked in a furniture store, and for the most part it was okay.  But customers yelled at me for things I had no control over -- do they really think a cashier has control over the color of wood finish a bed has?  And my boss was a pain, she would yell at me for not going up to a customer and asking if they needed help every 20 seconds.  Excuse me for not wanting to harass people.  And worst was one of the assistant managers who was incredibly condescending.  So I quit and went back to school to get my masters.  Soon I'll own their asses.

Some people thrive in this environment.  Not me:\nI worked in a call centre for 2 days.  I made my quota in the middle of the second day and told the supervisor that I was done and was quitting.\nI really did not like bothering people and was not about to put up with the abuse from people I contacted.

I know it sucks, but try to make youself stay until you find something else. It is easier to find a job when you already have one. Employers see that you have a job so they know you are responsible and just wanting to improve yourself by learning a new job and moving up.I hate my job too. If I let it, it really makes me miserable. While you are still at the bad job focus on doing things outside of work that make you happy.\n Good Luck.

"professional bum is an oxymoron" Calling some one a bum because he does'nt work, makes thing worse. There are far more people in the world then there are jobs. You cant expect everyone to have a job, because as soon as somebody gets hired, that job is unavailable for everybody else. Many people feel that not working is immoral, It was,thousands of years ago when everybody in a tribe had to do his share of the work, or they would'nt have enough food, but now a few percent of the population can produce enough food to feed everyone. Its not hard to make enough of something now, the challenge is to sell it. In America most of the real work is done by machines, women, and people who are not U.S. citizens, including people who make things for us overseas. We dont need people to do more work. Most american companies have too many employees, and can increase profits by laying off redundant workers. Yes, there are want ads,and there are jobs available, but they're not going to hire a bum when they can hire someone who gets his work done. If there was a job sharing program where you would share your job with an unemployed person, and you each worked every other day and you each got half of your salary. would you participate? Perhaps "professional bum" is a term that means an unemployed man who will never get a job and does'nt look for one. Bums believe that nobody wants them. They get this idea when they get fired from jobs, and they dont succeed in getting another job. To stop being a bum, a man must believe that he is'nt really a bum, and there is a job somewhere that is easy enough that he can do it, and someone who will want him as an employee. He must believe in himself, or nobody else will. He needs a family that does'nt perceive him as a bum, or acts like they dont.

Usually when one is interviewing for a job, and has held a higher position in another field, or has had a faster pace job they will be told this.  It is unfair, because you are trying to get into another field and have to start somewhere.  But as an employer here is what I see\n\nHere is someone who is burnt out with their current job and needs a break, they can't stop working so they'll take a "lesser" job until their batteries recharge, and then they will be gone.  Meanwhile I have spent time and money training the new employee only to lose them.\n\nI will then need to find someone else, train them etc...\n\nIt's the same thing as being told you're 'overqualified'.\n\nIf you are truly sincere about the life change, stress it early in the interview and reinforce it throughout.  \n\ngood luck

Does your resume say that you are looking for a specific job or is it vague and leaves the decision up to the employer to figure out what you want to do. An objective of finding an interesting job goes into the waste basket. An objective of finding a sales job where I can utilize my strong interpersonal skills gets kicked over to the sales dept. Are you only looking at ads or are you taking out the yellow pages and calling companies in your field and asking if you can fax over a resume and to who's attention. Only 10% of all jobs get advertised. Have you told everyone you know you are looking? 70% of people get their jobs through someone they know.
