Kinda just stare at the sky a lot. Went from a job working 60-80 hours a week nonstop with no expectation of time off if you got a call to one with 1/10th the effort needed for the same pay.
Feels surreal at difference in compensation vs effort in, especially because I’m more productive at the new place.
Not really sure what to do with all my free time when there’s no fires to put out

- stickyricky 5y agoSame. The way I see it we're paid for our expertise - not our time. In terms of free time, I've tried to fill it with hobbies, side-projects, and learning. A lot of my time goes to my son now that he's here. But before that there were some periods where I just did not do anything. The thought has crossed my mind to work two jobs or maybe start a consultancy. I think the real trick is to find friends. But I'm 30 and its difficult making friends at this age. C'est la vie.
- lovich 5y agoThat might be it? I actually live in a decently sized place with a handful of friends. I think I’m feeling content for the first time in my life and US culture growing up in the 90s, did not prepare me for this
