Re:Ask HN: Who Wants to Be Fired? on Thursday October 03, 2019 @05:08AM (#21145010)
I work remotely for a company in the Bay Area, doing mostly web development.

- Compensation is great.

- Few calls, very little micro-management.

- People I work with are great.

- They don't care about where I'm working from as long as the timezone isn't too far off.

Somehow I feel miserable. I can't quite explain it. I think it's because the work I do is boring and I've been doing it for a long time. I've been working fewer and fewer hours because I just can't get myself to work more. Also I don't really like being an employee, even if my relationship with my employer is great. I yearn for the ultimate freedom of owning my own business. I wish I could just be happy with my situation which is fantastic in every way.
