On the J O B
I have a job that allows me to get up when I want. Work as much as I want. Take off when I want. The only problem is the boss is a slave driver.

The downside of self-employment?

That's for sure. You've got to remember the bad times during good and vice versa.

Yeah and don't forget the guy working for you is a lazy slob! Never cleans up after himself and you have to double-check everything he does. I swear, if I could find someone to work as cheap as I do I'd fire myself and get some REAL help around here!

p.s., every time I look around, the guy is on the computer instead of doing something which should have been done yesterday!
