What are some jobs you've worked - or things you've done at work - that let you maximize your output on personal projects?About to start my first entry level sales job, and frankly, I couldn't give a fuck about anything other than the better paycheck. I did not study anything related to sales or tech in college, and only got this job by random chance. Worried that it's going to drain my energy to work on my side projects if I only do it after work is over.

>>35083812/adv/ is unemployed. Bump.
Security job. I learned how to play ukulele in the parking lot, started One Piece from scratch and caught up, completed several living dexes in Pokemon. Just gotta get a security license and a gun permit and it's just babysitting. I quit because I had so much free time that I got addicted to Pokemon Go and the place I worked had an enormous surplus of pokestops that I just didn't want to return to the job anymore.
>>35083812Real World 101: You are not being paid to work on "personal projects." From 9 to 5, they own your ass and 100% of your attention, and thinking otherwise is a sure route to unemployment.
>>35086066Actual Real World 101: every white collar friend I have does have to sit in the office 9-5, but they are only required to do 3 hours of work during that time. Not during the first 6 months they were learning the job, but now that they have mastered it.There were always be that one guy at work behind everyone else so he is like this guy:>>35085309

>>35086066Real World 201: It is against good principle to allow a major, international tech corporation to take more of my time and energy than my actual life. Prioritizing career over living the way I want is stupid, and a balance that leans on the side of preference is necessary.
