In general, when those thoughts crossed my mind it was when I was working a job I should have left already. There are good companies that value developers and/or give them a reasonably good balanced work environment. Generally the two go hand in hand. For places that don't, frustrations and poor practices tend to push us into less fulfilling lifestyles.
But if pressed... Corporate pilot comes to mind. I've spend I don't know how much money on training and aircraft rental. Most piloting jobs for corporate clients have you working only 2 weeks out of the month. That is, you only fly about ~250hr a year. The rest of the time can be spent hacking or doing whatever else you'd like to do.
- pimlottc 10y agoI met a pilot recently with one of the best jobs I've ever heard of. His job is to deliver private jets, and once there, train their would-be pilots. So not only does he get to travel around the world, but also stay in these places for up to a month or more while training. And since there are pretty strict laws about how many hours he can fly in a given period, he has plenty of downtime to enjoy the places he's at.
- dvrajan 10y agooh wow! I have been on a Boeing 737 simulator once and it was a unforgettable experience. Hoping to earn enough money to fly real aircraft atleast once. Life experiences is what matters.
