This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Eh, I have kids, so I already have enough mental drain w/o my full-time job, so I think I'd end up catching up on things I've been putting off, like exercise, repairs around the house, etc.

In fact, I lost my job at the start of COVID and didn't start looking for a few months because nobody was hiring. I got so much stuff done around the house, and I was able to essentially home-school my kids at the end of one school year and the beginning of the next. I really enjoyed that, and I would totally homeschool my kids if I didn't need to work every day to pay the bills.

So yeah, I'd absolutely appreciate a 30-ish hour work week, especially if I got one whole day off instead of it being spread across 5-days.
