    I would LOVE to go back to the tree farm or become a park ranger or something. It just doesn’t pay the bills that my cloud engineering does.

      Yeah! Hey in this economy, I regret it at times! In the world we live in, there are always trade-offs. No shame in whatever path you take, as long as you don’t vote Republican!
