UK workers are living the dream

Itís been finally proved that UK workers love their jobs. A recent survey has revealed that despite glamorous career choices such as a film star, footballer or food critique the majority of UK workers wouldnít leave their job for the world.

Online job portal, TipTopJob.com, surveyed five different industry sectors - Engineers, Sales, IT, Construction and Accountancy - to find out what their dream job is. Each sector was given the choice out of film star, footballer, charity worker abroad, doctor, food critique or their current job and surprisingly every sector voted their own industry as their dream job.

Accountants are the most content in their job with a massive 89 per cent choosing Accountancy as their dream job. Sales people are least content but 21 percent still chose sales as their dream job comparing to just 15 percent who would rather be a film star.

The results are mirrored throughout the other industry sectors too with 26 percent of engineers choosing engineering as their dream job, 34 percent of IT workers choosing IT and 47 percent of construction workers choosing construction.

The survey reveals that despite better pay, free meals and a hotter climate being on offer the majority of workers are already doing their dream job. Out of those surveyed, being a footballer was second choice closely followed by charity working abroad, being a filmstar, food critique and lastly a doctor.

Corinne Dauncey from TipTopJob.com said: ìThe survey results are comforting and dispel the myth that workers are unhappy within their jobs. Despite reality television making glamorous jobs more attainable in the eyes of school leavers it is reassuring to discover that there are plenty of UK workers out there who are happy in their jobs which may not pay as much money as a film star but offer stability, regular income and good career prospects.î
