Are you satisfied with your job?
My job satisfaction is very good: it is wonderfully creative and I enjoy making new things and fixing broken things.
Joy
I really enjoy the work I do now: developer, building and managing websites. I always found my work a bit boring before, but after finally getting my diploma and daring to take the leap, I love it. It’s very creative and I have to do a lot of research. I love playing inspector gadget. Building new websites is always a lot of fun, especially working together to achieve a beautiful delivery. Even when there is a problem, the part of solving it, but also the part of making the customer happy again.
Kilometers
My office is only 110 kilometers away. Half the A2, nice traffic jam. I’m less happy with that. The outward journey usually takes me 2 hours. I really think that’s a shame. As a result, the heart of the company is really there in Brabant. Last year there was a running competition that we participated in together. Super fun of course, but I lost my entire Sunday instead of an hour of running. It is also difficult at parties, because I have to go by car and can therefore never have a drink. It’s not possible at all with public transport, I’m not even going to start with that.
But yes, I have to think again about how much the distance outweighs my job satisfaction.
