3h of actual work sounds good
I know right! My clients would beg to differ !
You contemplate, every day about a career change? I mean whining about what you could be doing is awesome. Doing it every day at the same time kinda ruins it :)
You are a good father.
whilst contemplating an entire career change
To anything in particular?
Haven't a clue, I don't like working with clients anymore, and running a SaaS is out of the question since everyone wants to do it and it's not as dreamy as it sounds. I'll figure something out for sure.
Probably something outdoors since he's watching 'parcs and rec' lol
@[20:30] I know the feeling. Been there friend.
So uh...what does your wife do?
She looks after my son all day, ensures we have groceries, makes sure all the clothes are washed and ironed, cleans the house, takes him to play school, makes sure he has clothes that fit him, organises birthday presents and cards and gifts, is endlessly patient to name a few. She has a harder job than I do.
Workday:
- [08:00] Wake up in a daze and make my wife and son tea and breakfast
- [08:30] Shower, get dressed and ready
- [09:15] After prepping water canister and tea caddy, head to garden office.
- [09:30] Procrastinate
- [14:00] Realise the work day is nearly over. Panic. Cram work in.
- [17:00] Finish work, make son dinner and play with him.
- [19:00] Put son to bed and start making wife and I dinner.
- [20:30] Watch Parks and Recreation whilst contemplating an entire career change.
