You read that right - 70% of Americans hate their jobs.

What's fueling the discontent?  The survey finds bad managers lead to bad attitudes and lost productivity.

Gallup's Chairman and CEO Jim Clifton writes "these managers from hell are creating active disengagement costing
the U.S. an estimated $450 billion to $550 billion annually."

On the plus side, the poll finds 30% of the 150,000 workers surveyed enjoy their jobs and bosses.

Tell us about your job.  Love it?  Hate it?  What do you like?  What could you do without?
