WoW. Quite a thought provoking entry! I had a 9 to 5 job for a few years....I had to leave it becasue it made me want to put a bullet in my head. I've avoided the soul-crushing "grind" to an extent by staying in the restaurant biz - at least I can change my hours around whenever. Others shake their heads sadly at my choice - but my great-grandmother used to say something that always stuck with me - "Most people don't lay on their deathbed wishing they spent more time at the office."
