Not just my job, but the entire industry I'm in. I get paid really well, and I like some of the fine details, but overall I don't like it. My skill-set isn't very transferable either.

Basically my plan. I'm bending over and taking it from corporate America until I have enough to do something more fulfilling. Shit sucks, but my family makes it worth it. Work to live, never live to work. As long as I get time with my family and friends I'll be okay

I might not mind it as much if I was physically closer to my family, but I'm over 600 miles so its a 12 hours trip to see them. they live 2.5 hours from the closest major airport so flying commercial is not faster.
