Most agree it is a four letter word, but that is about where the similarity stops. Marsha Sinetar cited that a national poll indicted that more that a large percentage of working Americans said they did not like their work. [1]
The Gallup Poll has reported that more than sixty percent did not like their work.

Indicate the assumptions
that you are making, if you intend the opinion to represent anyone, or anything, other
than yourself, or your own experience. Indicate any supporting data that you have in
making your assumptions and what experimentation would be necessary in order to strengthen
the argument or your claim.
If you present information as
fact, please indicate the source and the method used to establish the fact.
If you are using a
theoretical hypothesis, please state it and the method used for the examination or proof
of it.
If you are stating an
apriori assumption, or affirming a commonly held "belief
system", please limit your discussion to your own experience and indicate how
you apply it successfully to yourself. Please include an opposing argument to your
affirmed " belief system" and indicate with your reasoning as to how it is
not as applicable to you as is your own belief system. .
