I love most things about my job and hate very little (power plant engineer). Love the schedule, problem solving, learning, future potential, coworkers, job itself and the opportunities. Hate the schedule, burns, coworkers, fiberglass and occasional danger.


I’m self-employed and doing the kind of work I’d pick if I could freely choose anything, so I can’t really say there’s much about my job I don’t like. After all, I have the luxury to refuse any job I don’t feel like doing. Like I did with applying wallpaper - fuck that.
I love that I can set my own working hours. I can take a day - or a whole month - off whenever I want. My running costs are so low that not working doesn’t bankrupt me. I get genuine gratitude for what I do. I manipulate the physical world, so at the end of the day I can see and touch what I’ve produced. I love that my customers are unreasonably reasonable. I love constantly learning new things and sharpening my existing skills. I love that no two days are the same. I get to work both outdoors and indoors. I love that I don’t have to touch a computer. I love that I get to do things the way I think they should be done instead of how someone tells me.
Yeah, I could go on forever.
