With countless occupations and professions people do in this world, it’s easy not to know much about how a day at work looks for everyone else except you.

In that sense, we know very little about what doctors, journalists, firefighters, truck drivers and all the others really do while on duty.

So Bored Panda created this list of pictures that show the invisible side of different jobs we don’t get to see often, if ever. The photos from on duty speak stories without any words, so pull your seat closer and enjoy the ride!

A Dog I Knew In My Last Job. My Job Was To Receive And Redistribute Things Like Food, Medication, Clothing, Blankets And Toys To People Who Need It

A Dog I Knew In My Last Job. My Job Was To Receive And Redistribute Things Like Food, Medication, Clothing, Blankets And Toys To People Who Need It

"The absolute perfect job probably doesn’t exist," Christine Mitterbauer, a licensed and ICF-approved career coach and serial entrepreneur, told Bored Panda in an interview. Having said that, she believes that it’s possible to get a job that is 90% perfect.

"Where most people go wrong, however, is by thinking they can achieve this in a few months, whereas especially if they’re looking for a career change, you need to think long-term and be willing to work hard to achieve this," Christine explained.

She added that even in a fantastic job, there will be bad days or even weeks. "So you always need to keep the big picture in mind, as well as get clarity on what work values are most important to you."

We also wondered why our society puts so much importance on careers while we know that it leads to burnouts or our lives being put on hold.

Christine explained that it’s maybe because for decades, people did work just to survive: “after wars and economic downturns, people are happy to have a job that puts food on the table.” But as things have improved, she argues, “people expect more from their job than simply a pay check, you could say it’s a result of how well we’re doing overall.”

In fact, “You could argue that some people now expect too much from their jobs (aka happiness and fulfillment), and they might be wise in considering whether they could achieve more happiness and fulfillment from other parts of their lives too.”

ADVERTISEMENT

The main signs that a person is happy at work can come down to asking yourself these questions, according to Christine. “Are you able to switch off over the weekend and not think of work? Do you even look forward to Monday morning? Do you feel work is getting the best out of you?”

What makes someone happy at work is very individual, Christine said, but often a mix of being stimulated, supported, rewarded, and having great colleagues and bosses.

So glad I don't work at call centers anymore. A lot of them ban you from having a pen and paper at your desk because they think everyone's trying to write down customer info. Yes, I absolutely want Jim's credit card number so I can buy stuff online that will be traced back to me.

This reminds me of once trying to collect a parcel from the post office. I had to sign for it, but whenever the clerk told me I had to sign and I reached for the clipboard with the signing sheet, they would pull it away. After about the fourth time, I had to say "You need to give me the clipboard if you want me to sign it!", which feels like it should be *fairly* obvious.

I wonder what I look like! because while I've been in customer service and I try to extend politeness to other customer service people... in the current process... by the time you get bounced around through the automated systems to get to a PERSON... and have to identify yourself and identify your problem and get passed on to somebody else and have to start all over again....it gets frustrating.... so where is my picture?

If there’s anything the worldwide pandemic taught us, it's rethinking our priorities and values in life, including our work and life balance. Many employees switched to partially or fully remote work, while others quit en masse, which caused the Great Resignation.

ADVERTISEMENT

In a previous interview with Bored Panda, Dr. Gleb Tsipursky, the best-selling author and CEO of Disaster Avoidance Experts, explained that the Great Resignation is a phenomenon that began in 2021, where a large number of people across various industries and countries decided to voluntarily leave their jobs.

“This mass exodus from the workforce was primarily driven by a combination of factors, including the COVID-19 pandemic, changing work-life balance expectations, and increased demand for higher wages and better working conditions.”

Great collection. I wonder who most people think of when they see Hawaiian shirts. Thomas Magnum? Don Ho? For me it's always John Nathan-Turner (1980s producer on 'Doctor Who'), which tells you a lot about me I guess :)

Kinda neat! Sounds like something I would do. I live in a very rural area and tend to pick up any spent shells that I find (as long as I know the area!). Store them in a large glass jug with other little findings/trinkets. :)
