40 hrs. a week

This is definitely a rant! As some of you know, I haven't worked a full time job in a LONG time, damn I forgot what's it's like. I realized that I often complain about being broke, but on the flip side--I never work more than 25 hrs. a week. This goes back to me really wanting to be an urban gypsy, a floater, someone who has no ties or commitments--someone the government could never find...But I guess that's not really "adult" like behavior. And I could be easily found, since I shop it up, I can easily be tracked from every transaction I make from here to LA. I digress-- 40 hours a week, I feel that I can do a supreme job in about 8 hours a day 4 days a week=32 hr. work weeks. This is my idea of the perfect work situation (if you are not self employed, and have to go into a office) arrive in the 9:30-10:00 window (I like windows, that way I'm never late) work all day, then leave sometime in the 4-5pm window. But I've realized there is more traffic around 4pm than 6pm, so this is when I should be going to the gym to miss the traffic...
Don't you ever wonder about the folks that are out and about mid-day? At the gym, creating random mid-day traffic--what do these mutha f* do? Not everyone works overnight gigs, is self-employed, or a housewife! Once again, I digress--40 hours a week, but if I was self employed I would be telling a different story. Don't get me wrong, I like what I do and I'm good at it (that's what people tell me ) but I feel like time is so valuable I need to make the most of my 24 hrs.
