Not have my phone on 24/7 while on "vacation" because work might call... Not answer emails ON CHRISTMAS FUCKING MORNING BECAUSE SOME DUMB-ASS WAITS UNTIL THE LAST FUCKING MINUTE to do the right thing. You know, join the 99% that only work to get their next 7 course meal.


For you plebeians I mean a 6-pack and a Taco.
I know its cliche, but I could go work any number of IT jobs paying me $20-30K more per year easily with my Certs, but the job im at now, my boss is great, i can wear whatever the fuck i want (which means today Im wearing a Snorg Tees Tee Shirt , Jordans, jeans, I may have not shaved my beard in 2 weeks either). I can work whenever i want, even from home. I dont have to report to anyone and im not micromanaged.

Piece of mind > Money.

I make enough to pay my bills and have a good time every few weekends. Nothing more, nothing less.
