    60 houre a week in an office is not 'breaking you back'?
    God your soft andd spoiled.

    I also work in an office(Software engineer), but I have never considered it 'back breaking', even when I did 100 hour weeks.

    Maybe that's because I have actual worked 'back breaking' jobs.

    Go work in a field, or put up dry wall. or did a ditch. You have no real perspective.

    I'm not saying your job is easy, or stress free, but back braking? that's laughable.

    If they can check you password., someone is plain texting it.

    Yes it's temping, and you should do it. Just becasue it's easy to remember doesn't mean it's easy to crack. Example:
    Street I lived on when I was a kid:
    Parakeet

    Name of my first pet:
    Toby

    This is easi informaiton for me to rememberm but not information that random,e p[eople would know, in fact Oyther than my immediat family, no one would know.
