Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Do 4x10 hours, no pay cut

I don't like working anymore. That's the problem.

Perhaps consider a change of careers? It's never too late to try something different (assuming of course, you're not under financial pressure or something). I've known many IT folks who moved into other fields, eg something adjacent like sales, project management, service delivery etc or something completely different, perhaps arts, trades or even business. Maybe take a break from work first, travel, meet people and have a think about what you'd like to do next.

Ya. No financial pressure. Just looking to slow down to make more time to play.

I know how you feel.

I've tried the 4x10 thing, it's pretty brutal, and I usually ended up exhausted and not really doing much all day Friday anyway.
