Nothing funny about it ! I don’t know how people deal with the daily toil.

Throughout my career I worked for a grocery store for a few months, and I worked a grill for a few months too. I was between 16-18. I also made money those years by doing V8 swaps.

I have owned my own business all my life. That means that most mornings I was up and at-em by 6 am but it was still on my terms. Even today I will set my phone alarm to go to a client site if they need me early.

but again, that’s all on my terms. My wife had to work for a bank. She had, literally, bankers hours. But still I couldn’t believe that her livelihood depended on “looking busy” and doing work based on a clock instead of work based on the challenge.
