re: Do you legitimately enjoy your job?

I enjoy what I do. Many of the lazy fricks I work with make it difficult to do it effectively or put my very best into it, because they wait until the last minute to give me what I need.

My job is one that I am eligible to teach at the high school level as part of elective focus (career path) but I have turned down 2 chances to do so as it doesn’t pay as well (even when you prorate in getting the time off in the summer)

I’m currently considering a complete change. I’ve spent 31 years in my field; while I occasionally get chances to do creative things, much of my work becomes redundant in nature.
