    There’s no sitting around and watching movies in that kind of job.

    What kind of jobs are you doing?

      I’m a senior software engineer, I work about 2 hours a day for 3 days a week. I’m very privileged, but I went to school until I was 30 and have 2 advanced degrees so there’s that. Also I’m pretty sure I’m going to be laid off in Q1 2024 so I’ll probably retire.

      I worked really hard long hours in grad school and in my first post doc, and I don’t ever want to be stressed like that again in my life.
