If you're lucky enough to enjoy your job, consider yourself lucky. And if you hate your job but love your salary, consider yourself lucky because there are people who hate both. 

As kids, we were in a rush to grow up, but when you're grown, you want nothing more than someone else to pay your bills. Oh, we didn't know how good we had it. 

If life feels like a slog, if your boss is chirping down your neck, and if you're feeling like you've reached a dead end, just become a criminal. It pays well and it beats sitting at a desk all day.
