Jobs that Make Us Unhappy or Miserable

Another quote that caught my attention from that book, this one by Faulkner. I know that some times we're limited to what jobs we can get and stuff, but a lot of times we limit ourselves. So let's quit making excuses and go after the things that we WANT to do and make us happy.

"One of the saddest things in life is that the only thing we can do for eight hours a day, day after day, is work. We can't eat for eight hours a day, nor drink for eight hours a day, nor make love for eight hours a day...all we can do for eight hours is work. Which is the reason why man makes himself and everybody else so miserable and unhappy."
