Is your Marketing department a happy place?

According to a recent office survey by Mars Drinks UK, marketing and other creative types are the happiest people and most content with their jobs. Which is just as well, as they are in the office for longer, on average working for 45 minutes longer a day than the average office worker.
The survey, discussed in an article on ‘The Drum’ magazine website, asked questions about working habits from emails to office disagreements. According to the article, the average creative employee ‘ receives 31 emails and sends 28, both makes and receives 24 phone calls and drinks an average of three cups of tea or coffee.’ Despite cited irritants such as IT failures and colleagues gossiping, 50% of creative office workers said they were happy in their job with only 6% saying that they hated their role. To see whether you match up to the average, see more details at http://thedrum.co.uk/news/2012/01/23/creative-professionals-work-longest-hours-50-are-happy-their-jobs
