Women's love-hate work issues studied

American women don't love their jobs – but they sure don't want to lose them, a new poll shows.

A survey of nearly 4,000 women, conducted by Woman's Day and AOL Living, found that 67% of American women would change what they do "in a heartbeat."

Another 79% said "no way" would they want their kids to follow in their footsteps.

But at the same time, nearly two of three women are worried about getting laid off – and just as many would work longer hours just to keep their paychecks.

I, for one, am stunned — stunned! — that women think and feel this way.  It's like they're stuck in this shitty economy the same as everyone else, where by "everyone else" I mean "men"!  I am so glad I read the news; how else would I have learned this?  By talking to women as though they're real people?  That's crazy talk.  A survey was the only way to acquire this information.

I am expecting the next article to be about how a survey of nearly four! thousand! American women shows that 63% of them like to sleep in.  The mysterious inner lives of women, revealed!
