Heart facts

OK, so I know I'm risking a heart attack because I smoke.
And because I drink.
And because I like fatty food.
And because I don't eat much fruit or veg.
And because I don't exercise a great deal.
But because my job is dull?

I hope the NHS are preparing for a whole rash of heart attacks as The Guardian today reports that UK workers are the most miserable in Europe and have the lowest levels of job satisfaction.
It does surprise me that "the biggest barrier to job satisfaction among UK workers was their pay package". In my experience the real problems are unrealistic expectations from employers who want you to do a great job without giving any training (huge problem in my industry), incompetent, apathetic management and the urge I always get about a week into any job to kill all my co-workers. Apart from that it's all rosy. If anyone sees a vacancy for a job where hostility, rage and aggression are a plus, please email me the details.
