So, while most of us look for revisions reasons to moan about work, what things do you actually like?
For me, it's having a pub next door. Plus the partners of my accountancy firm treat us to lunch there now and then on a Friday - and that includes a pint of the pub's finest ale! We're also having our Staff Christmas lunch in the restaurant attached to the pub.
EDIT: It seems I have revision on the brain at the moment as I revise for my Management Accountancy exam.

Well, what made me love working where I was working before the move is the variety of accounting jobs that I got to work on. It was always a different tax return, a different situation, or a different type of job almost everyday. It was all about problem solving and it kept me on my toes.

Just like DJ, I like my accountancy job due to the variety of things I have to do - whether it be personal or corporate tax, doing company accounts, payroll, audit - it's always different. And each client provides a different challenge, which is great fun.

I like being able to work out and practice martial arts combinations in an exercise facility in one of the buildings

I must now say that I love the way the accounting firm I work for takes care of it's employees and how everyone is nice there and they welcome new employees pretty much from the start. There is a lot of work to be done, so the day is never boring and I learn something new each day.

I just recently changed jobs, so this new one is super easy, no stress and great co-workers! Nice change from being a payroll administrator!

The fact we were allowed not to wear ties in work today due to this stupid heatwave we are currently having in the UK!

You should ask, it's great! I've been at my new job full time for 2 months now and I've only worn a tie twice!

I wasn't sure I'd have a job.... ;D But I do, and here's what I love about it (I work at a daycare): -I love it when the kids grin at me and come hug me when I walk through the door, even though it makes me punch in a little late. -I love how it's so easy to make a baby laugh, and you get people smiling at you like you're so awesome just because the baby likes your funny face. -When a potty-training toddler actually makes it a whole day without an accident. -All the cute faces and adorable kids! -It's so satisfying to see a kid do something that you taught them, whether it's a high five or naming a color.

Wish I had a bloody job. Stupid economy! However when I worked at my brother-in-law's restaurant back in high school, it was nice to be able to have customers recognise you and have a nice friendly chat. It made me happy to please them.
