Default Re: Do you do what you love for work?

I like my job.... I get up in the morning and come to work with a smile on my face. I enjoy my colleagues, so much so, some of us hang out socially outside of work as well.

That said, I do not love my work. I would not do what I do for free or anywhere close to free. That retirement thread had me thinking and I am firmly in the camp that I work to live, I do not live to work.

If I hit the lottery, I would not be coming to work every day. I may get a part time job at a golf course, fly shop ect....but probably not. I am pretty sure I could keep myself plenty busy without "work."

What he said, except I probably would get a "fun" job at a flyshop, etc.
