Is it really possible to be happy at work?

I’ve always wondered if it’s really possible to be happy at work. What are the factors that make going to work worthwhile, other than our work? I know all of us have different reasons for going to work. It could be for a living, for having something to do, to beat boredom, to not hang around at home all the time, well it could be just about anything. But how many of us actually go to work because we love what we do and want to keep on doing it everyday?
I’ve come to realise that when most of us take up a job, we assume it’s the right one. And if we don’t like it we have no qualms about changing the employer, while we decide to stick to the functional area we think is apt for us. But what happens if you do the same kind of job, maybe for different employers and not realise that it’s not the job that you will have to change but your career? A bad job can ruin your peace of mind. So what do you think would be the right thing to do? Stick around and rot or get proactive and move on and ahead?
