Seriously, though, yeah, I've said may times that if I could make the same coin working as a dispatcher or driving trucks again I'd do it in a fucking heartbeat.
When I was dispatching I even knew the benefit of the job at the time: at the end of your shift, don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. End of shift = done. Every day is a new day. Can't take that shit home with ya.
I've been doing the work-from-home thing, which is precisely as awesome and awful as you'd think. Yeah, you never have to leave home... but you never leave the office either. It's always there. When your employer starts taking advantage of that... yeah, no.
Life is too short, and we'll all be dead for a very long time. It's insane to miss out on life by simply slaving to make money for someone else who will, in turn, toss you away when you're no longer useful. Fuck that.
