I resent being forced to retire cause of poor health and having my life savings stolen by my own Mother.....word of advice: enjoy having a paycheck while you can have one.🖖
Find a job you love and you won't work a day of your life. I was a school social worker for 30 years and would have done it for free, because I loved it that much.
You have to fuck around more at work. Automate what you can and build a library of puzzles you can do sneakily. Strongly recommend the Cryptogram Puzzle Post. They are beautiful.
Seinfeld had a great routine about this.
"See, Night Guy always [messes up] Morning Guy. There's nothing Morning Guy can do. The only thing Morning Guy can do is try and oversleep often enough so that Day Guy loses his job and Night Guy has no money to go out anymore.”
I can’t believe all these replies and no one talking about M-F 9-5 jobs being a rarity these days. Plus how do you afford to survive on one 9-5 job? And what about the partners and taking care of kids with rising costs of child care

I get to do anything I want those days. (cry in bed)

There's like four billion people on this planet who don't get to live much of a life at all
But yes, we work too much and for not enough of a return. We should be working 32hrs a week.

Maybe I misunderstood the question
