I really like my job. I have found the things that help me like my job are pretty simple. I need to feel that I have the required authority and autonomy to effect change. If there are failures that I'm held responsible for, that I also feel powerless to fix, then I burn out. If there are things that I stuffed up but felt like I was empowered to achieve, yet still stuffed up that is a huge learning opportunity. Note it's about how empowered I feel. My feelings don't always line up with reality. I need to be learning and achieving. If I'm growing as an individual and can see the work I've put in paying off then I feel like I have a purpose and feel great about life. I need feedback from above. If I'm unsure where I stand I start to get worried and that worry prevents me from working well. Waiting a year for a performance review doesn't work for me, I'm too needy. I should have learnt years ago to ask for more feedback. It's scary but it helps me stay on track. I also need to feel like I'm part of a team. That we're in this together working towards a common goal. If there are jerks pulling each other down I don't want to be in that team. Money is important as it feeds my family but my sanity only seems to hold if I get some satisfaction from my job. My ideal is to work for a boss that manipulates me into performing well.
