I USED to get stressed out at work. But, I realized that they can't fire me, because I am the only programmer. Not a single person around here can even write a simple Excel macro.
So now I just don't care. That is the real stress reliver JUST "DON'T CARE".
The faster and better I work, the more work I am asked to do. So now, I come in, I work 8 hours and what doesn't get done, can be worked on tomorrow. I leave my work at work and never, ever put in one minute of overtime.
If I ever did get let go, all the work I have done would eventually break, and since I never have time to create procedures or document my code, they would have to ask me back. Can you say $200/hr consulting fees?
Oh no, hear comes the pointy haired boss. She has no clue what slashdot is and can never tell if I am working or not. Gotta get back to --- what was I doing?? Oh yeah, I don't care.
