But my job is a casual work environment, has great benefits, offers flex time (I get a 3-day weekend every week), my vacation/sick time is about to bump up to 6 weeks this fall, my coworkers are awesome, and it’s a gay-friendly company. Meanwhile, I watch my sister-in-law work her @ss off, working through vacations and at all hours of the day, for a $100k+ job. Would I like to make $100k+? Sure. But when it comes down to it, I’d rather enjoy the time I have now than wait until retirement.
