The Devil wears Prada

10 reasons why you should watch "The Devil wears Prada":

1) If you think you have the worst job in the world.
2) If you find that your boss is hedious, devilish, and is all out to make your life miserable.
3) If your whole life revolves around your job, and only your job.
4) If you turn up late (that is, if you turn up at all) or have to leave early for gatherings with your family or friends because of work.
5) If you jump whenever your phone rings. And it's your boss on the other line.
6) If your phone rings whenever you are supposedly off-work. And again, it's your boss.
7) If you realise (hopefully in time) that your love relationship is breaking up.
8) If you have a female boss.
9) Simply, if you hate your job.
10) If you have time to spare (other than work) for a movie!

I went to catch this movie last week, under the recommendation of a friend who has a female boss who fulfills the criteria of the devil in the show. Ouch!

The best reward I got is that it made me feel my life (and job) is not that bad after all.

As I am typing this, a card which a friend gave me when I first started working hangs over my computer monitor, "When you love your job, your work makes life sweet and fruitful."

It's motivating when I have had a good day, and it brings a smile to my lips, but it pricks to read when I have had a lousy day.

"I love my job. I love my job. I love my job! I love my job!"

That is the chant I have been practising ever since I watched that show.
