    prioritize my life over my work

    And holy shit do I get shamed for it.

    Don’t you care about the company or moving up in the organization?

    Fuck no. I care about paying off my insane mortgage, keeping the lights on and having time to do what the fuck I want.

      I just wanna get paid enough that I can travel the world from time to time. Get to live a little before I turn 60 with a butt load of health problems. And I only got 20 years left before that happens. The last 20 years I spent mostly struggling to survive until I got comfortable enough.
