  1. You dread Mondays
  2. Dragging yourself to work every day can have a huge impact on your happiness in the long-run. If you find yourself in this predicament, reconsider your job choice. Dreading work days can make you call in sick even when there is nothing physically wrong with you. Research has shown that unhappy employees take an average of 15 more sick days a year than happy employees.While it is okay to be unhappy that the weekend is over, if you spend Sundays dreading work, that's a clear sign that something is wrong.
  3. Consistently Negative Feedback
  4. The most glaring clue you can get about your choice of jobs is the consistent feedback you get from others. If your life is filled with negative comments and few rewards, it’s probably not because your manager hates you. You are just in the wrong job. Consider the possibility that you are the problem. Be honest and find yourself a better fit.
  5. You're always complaining
  6. It’s natural for most people to complain once in a while. But when you find yourself complaining about your job all the time, it’s a huge indicator that you’re in the wrong job. Endless complaints about your job, at the least, indicate that you are not enjoying your work.
  7. You hate the company
  8. It can be difficult to get enthusiastic about a job when you hate the company. Hating the company can make it difficult to work because just like when you don't like learning something, you will be less enthusiastic about it. In other words, you don’t believe in the company’s products or services.
  9. Nothing Comes Naturally
  10. If you go to work every day hating what you are doing, then it might be time to reconsider your choices. Working at the wrong job can drain you emotionally and mentally and life is too short for that. It's important to strive and hustle and master new skills. However, if nothing in your job comes easy, you might be in the wrong line of work.
