[QUOTE="Rel, post: 2129827, member: 99"] I like my job and I love my boss! Of course, I'm self-employed. I'm a legal-videographer. I videotape depositions to be shown to juries in court when the witness cannot personally appear. Mostly it's doctors. The work itself is sometimes very dry and boring to listen to but I usually learn something at each deposition and that keeps it somewhat interesting. Sometimes the lawyers really fight with each other and that's always fun. And even when the work is boring I'm getting paid great for it so I don't mind so much. The other side of the coin is that running your own business can be incredibly stressful. I'm always worried about getting in enough work (the last few weeks have been a little slow :\ ) and it is annoying having to call delinquent customers to get them to pay their bills. But the nice thing is that even when I'm busy, it isn't "all day every day" and I get to spend extra time with my family (and posting here on ENWorld). And it isn't the same thing every day. I travel all over the state and work with different people so there is no rut. All in all, if I could just get a bit more work coming steadily in the door, I'd say I've got a pretty damn good job on my hands. [/QUOTE]
