This aspect of job satisfaction focuses primarily on what an employee does for a living or in their job. Consider the 40 to 50 hours per week that most employees spend in their office or cubicle. Can you imagine those hours spent in complete boredom? Or do you want to be anywhere but at work? Having the best boss in the world can't make up for the lack of true "love" for your job. Satisfaction with the job itself is the single strongest driver of overall job satisfaction (Ironson, Smith, Brannick, Gibson, & Paul). It's difficult to be satisfied with your job if you don't truly love and appreciate what you do
