Has The World Gone Mad?
In a survey of men and women who work in small businesses, it was revealed that the majority of American small business workers love their jobs, have short commutes and work between 40 and 60 hours a week.
I believe the key word in the above sentence is “small.” Small business is definitely more friendly to workers. I also would put money on the probably that a quite a few of those small businesses have an Internet component. Anyway, back to the story:
The survey of 1124 men and women was conducted this month by iContact, an email marketing and surveying platform for small businesses. Respondents were asked a series of questions on their working habits, their commute time, their status in their companies, and how much they did - or did not - like their jobs.
An overwhelming majority of small business workers - 75 percent said they would rate their jobs an 8, 9 or 10 on a scale of 1 to 10 - with 10 being an “I love my job” answer. Less than 3 percent of those surveyed gave their jobs a “3″ or below. The findings were consistent among men and women, with men indicating slightly higher job satisfaction (75 percent to 74 percent) than women.
