      Hey xchloex and kiwicles,

      Yes i love my job! I think helping to understand the world better is a great job to do! But of course sometimes I don’t like it so much when something isn’t going right and you spend weeks trying to find a tiny mistake in a calculation! Every job has good and bad points though and the good definitely out way the bad!

      Hi xchloex and kiwicles,

      A massive YES! I love what I do and I am always thankful I had the right combination of luck and hard work that means I can have it. I get to work on the frontline of science, trying to increase the knowledge of human beings and hopefully help us avoid some of the dangerous aspects of climate change. As well as finding out all these new things out, I also get to take my work all over the world and talk to other people from other countries about it. It is absolutely amazing!

      Hi guys,
      I love my job. Although I could earn more money doing something else, I find my job really enjoyable, so I wouldn’t change it for anything. Whatever job you do, you have to spend most of your week doing it, so I don’t understand why people would do jobs they didn’t like unless they absolutely had no other choice.
