I've had some of the worst managers/bosses alive. And your boss can make or break your attitude towards your work in general. I'm 50 years old and have only had 1-2 good bosses in my entire life! I've worked in higher education, large corporations, non profit, small business, family run businesses and in virtual environments. And it's been rare that I've had a great boss. Maybe it's just bad luck for me, I don't know. But I am guessing from what I've seen from others that great bosses are really hard to come by. Your boss (to me) is one of the most important aspects of a job. I've basically hated every job because I've had such terrible bosses.
So, one is very very lucky if they have a great boss, a great company AND a job that they like. To me, that's rare to have.

Yeah I agree. It is very rare to be in a great company. Employers and even coworkers are usually in it for themselves and a paycheck. And I agree that bosses and even coworkers can determine what kind of attitude you have towards the job. All depends on the work environment.
