I'm fairly happy with my gig, Technical Writer. Of course, it took me 9 years, multiple jobs, and a few moves over the years to get the gig I have now.

I work for a HUGE tech company, if you've ever purchased something for your better from Williams Sonoma, they run our software.

Salary is pretty good for someone with a Journalism degree in Oklahoma. Work from home 2-3 days per week, I'm in the office right now in shorts, flops, and a Mastodon Tshirt, my benefits and allow me to have my girlfriend on them as a "domestic partner" which is good since she is a contractor and thus no benefits, and she has a very expensive, debilitating chronic disease.

However, we aren't really a fan of the politics in Oklahoma, so we are hoping in a few years to move. But even with an appropriate raise, I'm not sure I want to pay the higher living costs of somewhere like Denver or Austin.
