I'm a mid level manager type at a tech company. My boss is great. I love some of my coworkers. I make a decent wage. I have a tiny commute. I enjoy tremendous flexibility.

I really dislike what I "do". It's kinda mind numbing. It's only occasionally challenging. The company I work for is owned by private equity dicks. ~10 million cash flow per month isn't enough for them, 18% growth should be 35% and so on. It's crazy to think about.

But hey. I've got kids to feed and a mortgage to pay. My handcuffs may not be golden, but they're at least a really nice stainless steel.
