Re: Landing the big one (not what you might think)
I'm not sure I want my "dream job". Chances are it will end up 1 of 2 ways: 1) I go broke or can't make a living at it or 2) It will suck the fun out of my favorite hobbies.
I made the decision years ago that I was going to persue my career with the idea that it is a great way to finance my real life. I go to work to fund the things that are most important in my life. Taking that attitude has seemed to reduce my stress in general. I perform my job well, but I don't take it home. And hobby times are a great way to relax and get away.
Better to be an active environmentalist than and environmental activist.
