Pay vs. Happiness

itri writes "A co-worker recently sent me and article about job burnout. Although it's a year old, the points seemed to resonate well with me. The nutshell of the article is that job burnout is caused by lack of the sense of accomplishment, working for a narcissistic boss, and a conflict between the employers and employee's values. Is it really better working for a company that cares about your satisfaction? Are there any companies like that and (more importantly) are they hiring?"

    Job burnout is a serious issue for Americans, who typically work 20 hours or more per week than their lazy European counterparts. That is why the US accounts for 30% of the world's economic activity.

    Good to see after sucking the marrow from society's bone some people can sock enough away to live on a cook's wage.
