How to feel better at your job

Hate your job? You're almost certainly not alone. But while you could go out and look for a new one, that's not always an option, and could take months -- meanwhile, here you are, unhappy every day from 8 to 5.

So how can you fix it?

This Yahoo! Finance article has four good suggestions: make a friend a work, decrease your commute time by moving closer to work, know when it's not about your job, and do good deeds. Did you know your grumpy mood from a bad commute is likely to stick with you the entire day? Or, in general, that the type of work you do won't actually have a huge effect on whether you're happy or not?

Beyond a few interesting tid bits, a lot of the explanation behind those four suggestions may be advice you've heard before. But if you're in a rut and feeling trapped, anything that helps you move forward is a good first step, right? Take a look, you'll feel better for it.
