Got tired of sitting on my ass indoors all day, working 60ish hours a week, getting paid for 40 hours a week, and always having to take work home with me.

I have my own business to run, so if I'm going to make money sitting on my ass, I'm going to make it for me. Otherwise, I figured I could use the exercise.

The kicker is, the pay won't really be much different during 40-hour weeks.

So far, I'm really enjoying the decision.

Coke Zero, on the other hand, is the nectar of the gods.
