"Who doesn't wait to be done with their workweek anyway?" is something I heard in a conversation that was happening near my desk. The answer is me. I actually like working and having the routine in my life. Are there not others who like their job and the structure it adds to your life? I'd like to know if I'm weird or not haha.

Would you continue working the same job if you had won 60million right now? If the answer is no then yeah you need to fill your life with things that sets you alight. As long as you’re working for someone else, look around and remember that none of that belongs to you

Think about that all the time, if I won the lottery I might not quit but it sure would take a lot of the stress out. Gotta work to make money to do what you love

I do enjoy my work BUT I love the weekend.

I like the structure, the work, not so much.
