I quite liked The Alchemist, though I'm dubious of some of Paulo Coelho's philosophical ideas at times.

A while back I read The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work by Alain de Botton, and enjoyed it immensly. de Botton has a real philosophical bent, and profiled a number of different occupations, and makes a lot of really insightful observations about the modern workforce. Can't recommend it highly enough.
