Current Job - Do I really want to do this?

When I was in high school I took a couple accounting classes and really enjoyed them. I decided that since I liked it that I should get a degree in accounting. I went to a 4 year college and got my degree. During my last two years I interned at a CPA office. It was there I discovered that I didn't want to be a CPA. Maybe if I had worked for a different CPA I would at least consider it, but no.

My first job out of college I was working as an accounts payable specialist. It was not the job I had applied for originally, but with limited experience and having just graduated from college, it was probably the best non-CPA job I could get. I started work and it was alright. Not really challenging at all. Pretty easy I thought. Then my husband got a new job and we moved to the other side of the state.

Fortunately I got a job right away. It seemed like a great opportunity. I was definitely glad to get it considering the economy was getting worse. My first few weeks were pretty good. The work I was doing wasn't too difficult and it kept me busy. Plus, I was grateful for a steady income during the recession, especially since my husband's job doesn't pay much and we have student loans to pay off.

Two months later I'm not satisfied here. The work is kind of boring, the people have bad mouths, and I'm wondering if just maybe there's something better out there for me. However, the pay is nice and consistent and the company isn't cutting jobs during this recession.

But I can't help and think. Is this what I'm going o be doing the rest of my life? Do I even want to do this? Part of me, mostly my pride, thinks I need an accounting job since I got an accounting degree. But part of me wonders if the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. Is there a job out there that I would like better? Feel better at? Enjoy?

But rather than give up my current job in the hopes of maybe finding something better, I sit here and suffer through it. Longing for the day I won't be here or won't have to work.
