    If I could keep my salary I’d find another line of work. Something outside maybe? Whatever lets my brain go home at night.

      Working outside sounds great when you’re working indoor all the time. And at first it will be refreshing.

      However after a few years (months?) of working outside, in the cold, the rain, the heat, you’ll envy the office workers and their perfect temperature open space with a nearby coffee corner.
