I’m jealous.
I’ve been working 60+ hour weeks (9-9 basically) and I’m neck deep in the rat race, and the politics of working at my level is killing me.
Once I’ve got my house mostly paid off I can’t wait to just work random small jobs and relax.
Well, I DO 70hrs weeks, in that I work 10hr shifts for 7 days. But then I'm off for 7 days. Today is day off 1. But yeah, I love that I work all alone and I basically make my own schedule; I have a few tasks to do but I do them when I want during my shift, and they take up about a 3rd of my shift, so the rest of the time I a) help dayshifters by doing some of their chores, and b) educate myself cinematically. cough
I had a job like that working nights and I enjoyed that schedule. When you had your off week it felt like a vacation.
