Unhappy at work?

We all have tough days at work, but if you're at the point where you dread getting up every day, you may be one of the 50 percent of people who are "unhappily employed". Whether it's because you don't get paid what you think you're worth, you don't get respect from your boss, or you just don't like what you do, it can affect your mood about everything else in your life.

The good news is, you can make changes to make you happier. Career Navigators is a new organization that offers free career coaching and guidance - everything from updating your resume to rehearsing how to introduce yourself at a networking event.

You can e-mail the founder, Bill Grunau, directly at navigators@flamingoroad.com; and listen to South Florida Spotlite this Sunday night at 11:30 to hear Bill and career coach Stanley Zamor offer tips on re-energizing your career.
