<i>It&#x27;s a pretty good filter for finding companies that I&#x27;d be happy working at</i><p>I gave up at that one. People told me, &quot;find a job you enjoy&quot; but I think it&#x27;s a lie. No one pays you to enjoy yourself. I haven&#x27;t found a job to make me happy. Maybe someone found that kind of job but I didn&#x27;t.<p>So now I find a job, work for a couple years, then quit and take months off at a time. I use the money I earned to fund my travels, which I enjoy. And sometimes at work, I look back at something I built, and the feeling of having built something is a really great feeling (even if no one cares about that thing). Then I go back to glaring at my coworkers.
