Employees often feel stressed and burnt-out because they can't handle heavy workloads or meet deadlines.

Companies should provide employees with good working conditions to boost productivity.

A job in which I have to work under constant pressure doesn't sound too attractive.

While having a well-paid job is not a must for me, I do want to earn enough money to make ends meet.

Many dream of making a comfortable salary/income without having to sacrifice too much of their personal life.

I think workers generally have very low job satisfaction. 

Factory work is so uninspiring and repetitive.

I don't want to be stuck behind a desk in the future. I'd prefer to do something creative and challenging.

Being a teacher can make you feel stuck in a rut coz there's basically no promotion opportunities.
