If you're like me and working a job right now where you are tied to a work phone, get hundreds of emails a day about I'm not sure what and can't ever totally shut the brain off from work in case there's an emergency, then it really puts flying into perspective about the skills/training we were given to put toward doing a job that I believe in the LONG RUN will allow for better quality of life.
Nothing's perfect in a job but being able to set the parking brake and truly be done for the day is sounding better so I can have quality time at home.
