3 pillars of job satisfaction
Skorks says his 3 pillars are money, people and type of work.
Rod Hilton says it’s people, project and the company.
I say it’s the people, the technology and the appreciation you get.
People: If the people you work with are nice, or your friends, or rich & famous, or funny, or easy to work with. Basically if I don’t hate to be with them, I can check that box.
Technology: Challenging, relevant, interesting, in high demand, brain teaser. That does it.
Appreciation: $$$, your users, your coworkers, your boss, the industry. Any of these is good.
3 out of 3: you run red lights to get to work in the morning
2 out of 3: you run yellow lights
1 out of 3: you slow down at the green light
0 out of 3: been there, no fun, but it gets better.
