Two options, same pay:
1. dumb job that's easy and you learn nothing and your boss approves all your half-assed work. But you have nice coworkers that you like as people, good perks and work ends at 4pm.
2. "cool" job where you learn tons of stuff, make nice work with talented people for big brands that you care about 1/3 of the time. But you work 10 hour days and it takes time away from your own life and personal work. But your personal work is getting better as a result.
- 2 while you’re a kid, 1 later in lifescarabin
- Ditto abovepseud
- 1. And do the cool stuff in your spare time.********
- Depends how old you are.BusterBoy
- 2. life will find its way
1. if you want to be brain dead without even noticing******** - 3.Krassy
- If you've already had 2, then go for 1. Do 2 for as long as it makes sense.zarkonite
- or 3 take that personal work you mention and make it your job ;)zarkonite

- 1 for sure, over 30 - then find a solid hobby and monetise it by 40 and retire early.********
- Phone it in on 1, then work those extra three hours on something to help you quit 1 and be your own boss.monNom
- ...Assuming you've levelled up early on grinding and learning a bunch at a type 2 place.monNom
- Echo what Scarabin said at the top. Now I'm 40, I'd go option 1 to have more time to work my own projects, every time.Wolfboy
