In an average day I probably have 2-3 hours worth of work. Some days there are more, obviously.

Took me years of maneuvering to get to this point, obviously though - and yeah it's a management position

Currently in Business Development. Not very demanding, unless you haven’t won any work.

Deal with people all day. It definitely can be challenging. Pay is good and I only work 50 hours a week. Pros and cons but I am fulfilled

The only department in my line of work that isn't allowed to make mistakes is the Quality Department. We have to catch everyone's mistakes before they reach the customer including our own.

Job difficulty- It's tough to quantify because it's such a specialty. I'm paid for a skillset that few posses. Sad thing is I actually only use the skill a few times a week for a few hours. Spend the rest of the week waiting.

Job demand- It's cake most of the week, punctuated with a few moments of head-scratching diagnostics, WTF, terror and joy.

I love it, been here 9 years. I have an opportunity to make much more money elsewhere, but I like where I'm at enough to stay.

I barely break a sweat it's easy and I work when I want. It's why I do this. Easy and a high ROI. If I come across something I don't want to do, I give a high price and pay someone else to do it and just take a cut.

I’d say it was exciting and challenging when I started a few years ago, but now I’m jaded and it’s monotonous and resembles a prison. Not difficult work. Not demanding. Just aimless.

Work in technology. Non manager making about $150k. I’m really good at Google and once upon a time I could code. 35ish hours a week. Mostly advising lemmings on where to look for answers.
