Are you happy in your job? Is your career satisfying and fulfilling? If so—congratulations! You are in the minority of people who don’t dream of breaking out of their work-related misery. But if you answered no—and it’s more than likely you did—don’t worry, you’re in good company. In fact, surveys from many sources, including the London School of Business and Finance, and New York-based research group The Conference Board, consistently show that around 55 percent of people are dissatisfied at work, with up to 45 percent of people actively looking for a new job at any one time.
