Back before Y2K, a friend of mine and I made a (not really serious) pact 
to go into truck driving if the technological world ended because of Y2K.

I know for me that in general the job is very rewarding and fulfilling - 
but all jobs have their down days, and unless you're a company of one, 
you're going to have politics to deal with.

I have to say, though, selling drinks on the beach sounds better than 
truck driving. :-)
