Guess I’m a fool. I’m salaried with quarterly bonuses. I probably work 60-70 hours a week. I could work less hours but there is a distinct correlation in the more hours I put in the more I make. Bottom line I have a career that I never walk out of the door and feel done. It’s a grind but I love what I do.

I work for myself. A typical day involves 2-4 hours of actual work. The rest of the day is spent taking naps, running errands, and working on home projects. I don't set an alarm in the mornings, and I work whenever I want.

I'm able to rake in a six figure income. I can literally play golf whenever, wherever I want to.

Worked shift work in the hospital for first 3.5 years of career, then moved into sales world. Make my own hours, get to travel, and eat and drink on company time. Some weeks are 60+ hours including travel time(overnights), with maybe only 15 hours of actual work. Best thing next to not working IMO

I did it for 5 years and now I have sleeping problems. The switching back and forth from days to nights screws you up.
