Choosing a place of work where you have less fun and are constantly in a bad mood just to retire a little earlier or work a few hours less per week feels insane to me. I rather have 40 hours of fun work than 37 hours of shitty grind and 3 hours of free time. | |

All the people who really think that are either expensive consultants or own a business, and won't be drawn to a salaried job. | |

For most people, this means favoring jobs that will help their careers over jobs that pay more right now. This looks like a potentially career-killing job. | |

| Jul 6, 2018 at 14:03 | comment | added | Fattie | The entire, total aim of life is to do as little work as possible so you can live your life and enjoy your family. The one and only way to "do less work" is to "get more money". Less money == slavery and work in to your old age. Making less money means you 'want to work' - you are 'choosing work'. | |

Maybe the ones who really are brainwashed since they were small kids that bunkering up loads of money is what life is about... those are the ones you can get for sure by making sure to pay highest salary. | |
