    -free supplemental medical insurance makes for no out of pocket medical expenses
    -Monday - Friday. No call, weekends, or holidays
    -with the exception of just a few days, I am off work when my kids are out of school. Love getting to spend more time with them over summer
    -just got transferred to a site about 5 minutes from home. The less gas and less time wasted commuting has been great
    -kids are able to ride the bus to me after school so no more paying for after school child care (honestly that feels like a pay raise)

    Relaxed environment, work from home when needed, schedule flexibility, several people at my last job now work at my new job (4), great money (makes up for crappy benefits). Basically I do what I want as long as I get my work done.

    • The atmosphere of a college is exciting and active, so always something going on.
    • Constant opportunities to learn about diverse cultural things/issues/etc.
    • I love watching students find their success
    • I enjoy the discourse of learning methodology and practice.
    • I have complete control of what I do and how.

    I get to work from home.
    My company pays for my cell phone, internet bill, and gym membership.
    I get a great deal of discounts from clients my company has worked with.
    My general benefits are great.
    Every year I get a new computer.
    I get to (loosely) set my own schedule.
    I often get to attend events and conferences that interest me. I just went to Outdoor Retailer a few weeks ago.

    Joking aside, just looking at the homepage in dev tools is pretty disheartening. There are so many errors.

    There's a lady named Anna who works with me who used to be a caterer. She cooks full meals for us regularly. I'm talking biscuits and gravy for breakfast, fresh baked cookies in the afternoons, homemade pasta.
