Completely agree with this. It's one reason why I like being a teacher (and one reason why it'd be hard to leave, even if it's for a job that has a much higher chance of allowing me to make FU money). I have several months off (well, not off as I do have to do stuff, but I can work from home mostly), of the course of the year, to pursue hobbies and basically anything I want to, even if it's just being super lazy. I really enjoy that, and it makes for a much better work-life balance.
