If you impregnate 3 women per year, you never actual have to go to work.

It’s “unlimited”. I just have to stay at the company 2x as long as I took off.

The job I had before my current one was awful. I hated it. I dreaded going. That

I feel sort of the same way. I think I would hate everything though.
