Hi!
You're not alone - I hate my job too!
I work for a huge corporation, so have the safety net of a regular (and healthy!) paycheck every month, but I *HATE* the politics and all the unnecessary paperwork that just makes the job hard!
On the other hand, IM is exciting and gives me an avenue to be creative. Plus, I only answer to God and my wife!
Cheers,
-John.
