make a living working at a job where i don't have to get up until 10 (AM).

i quit my day job about four months ago, and it has been a great adventure since. my earliest wakeup time is around 10:30 am, and having 9 hours of sleep each night is doing me good. while it’s true what they say about its tendency of messing you up, not having a structured day and all that, i say it comes with the territory. the challenge is to build a structure that suits you, but remain flexible enough to accommodate the unpredictable. the best part? getting to spend your day any way you want. :D

or at least as close as I’m ever going to get. I teach, so nine months out of the year I’m up before seven, but then for week upon blissful week in the summer, it’s bed at 2am and then up at 11, if I feel like it. Anyway, I think it’s a silly goal to keep up there.

Though I would LOVE the be selective right now in where/what time I work, I am jobless and desperate. I’ve even applied at my campus Rec Center for hours that range from 6 in the morning to 12 noon.. Oy.

I work either 3-10 or 4-10. I don’t really mind it. I am more of a night person and usually stay up until 2 or 3. worth doing!

Hi
Just moved to Fuerteventura, do photography from around 12:00 of watersports, people around here things 12 is early, take the photographs in the afternoon till around 5-6, come home shower down load the photos and create contact sheets, go out around 8:30 pm to a sports bar, deliver the proofs to a folder there, have a few drinks and go home whenever I like (bars don;t close till 2-4 am, then, get up at 10 the next day
With the sunshine and warm weather it’s great

I’ve got a job as a programmer in a software company in Israel, but whose customers (and tech support personnel) are mostly in the U.S. – so they actually encouraged me to come to work in strange hours. I used to get to work at around noon. Now that I’m a father, I usually work more “normal” hours, but it was fun while it lasted.

One of the best changes in my lifetime – now I don’t have to have “learn to get up early” on my list.

I love my job – I’m so free!

i used to work at a theater in new york as a dresser. i had to be to work between 2 and 3 in the afternoon. it was lovely. we worked getting things ready until the show started, ran the show, did laundry and repairs afterwards and got out around midnight. on some wednesday nights we would go dancing at a bar called Salsa y Salsa. it was fantastic. i didn’t know now to salsa or merengue and i still don’t but the men would whisk you around the floor and all you had to do was follow. then we would go to the hookah bar and have a breakfast of falafel and hummus. and i would drag home and get to bed as my roommate was getting up for work. 7 hours of sleep and right back at it. so i know… this is mostly about the activities and not the hours, but i never could have done it if i worked 9-5.

At first you think working later hours is cool, but all it does is mess you up.
