Rats in a lab


 Rats in a lab

So many people are confused by the nature of the work that I do. Which is understandable, it’s not really a conventional 9-5 mon-fri 40 hour a week kind of job. My kind of work is up and down, when it comes around (which really depends on how badly I want to work) and is never really the same twice. Of course it is similar, but no two different months or possibly weeks are ever the same.
Sometimes I get to hang out at work more than I have to actually work. Sit, and often lay down. Sometimes I get to read my favorite book. Sometimes I get to go on facebook and talk for long periods of time. Sometimes I get to watch Netflix, and other times I get to do whatever I want for hours and at time. Sometimes even, for days.
My job has a huge scale of pay rate as well. Mostly I get paid anywhere from $2,000 at the least per month, to $7,000. So a pretty sizable ratio for sure. But, mostly it averages anywhere from $150 a day to about $300 a day.
Not to mention, I get to eat three meals a day for free. My grocery bill while I am working is next to nil.
In addition to all the above, I can quit whenever I want, and go home. Now I haven’t ever done that, but it is nice to know that I can if I desire to.
It’s not bad really. Haha. Not bad at all.
For a kid trying to pay his way for school, it is the dream. Easiest, work ever. I am not slaving away at a farm, construction, or graveyard shift at Wally-world. No. I wouldn’t ever do that again (I have done that in the past.) I can come home from a semester of school and have 0% worry that I will find some work. All the while Bob and Frank are spending half their time home looking for a job, and then getting one that pays next to nothing. Meanwhile I am kicked back, taking it easy like a king eating grapes everyday (grrr, start to get sick of them!) making about 3 times the amount.
You might be wondering what I do. If you haven’t figured it out yet, I will tell you.
I’m a Lab Rat.
Yep, who would have guessed a rodent’s work is the way to go.
Is there a catch to all of this?
Well, I will leave you to figure that one out!
